Our minds has been with other things as on December 6th, Olivia Sharon was born, daughter of Kevin and Adena. She is so precious, new life is such a miracle every time again. She had a bit of a rough start but things are going well now. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. We have another granddaughter to love and to spoil.
On Monday, Oct.10, we had another early start, we left Aqaba and headed north over the King's Highway (which used to be the old caravan route) to Petra. This place was truly amazing to see. It used to be a flourishing community as far back as 400BC and is carved out of the rocks. We had to walk in, over a kilometer through a gorge with high cliffs which on many places had carvings and statues of the gods they worshiped and a sophisticated water system.
At the main part was the amazing Treasury, also an amphtheater and tombs, etc. Unfortunately we were not there long enough to explore it all. Blogger does not want to upload the next picture. I'll add some more in a separate post.
