A lonely Bedouin camp, very romantic. Unfortunately because of the overnight downpour it got very cold overnight - so no sleeping under the stars.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The excellent communal evening meal was prepared by our jovial host.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Breakfast though was outside. The tea was refreshing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Breakfast tastes even better in the sun.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The afternoon that we arrived at the camp there was a camel ride for those keen to emulate T.E. Lawrence.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ann & I have been on enough (uncomfortable) camel rides over the years & declined the option.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Part way into the camel ride we were hit by a sandstorm. You can see it approaching us to the left of this photo. Luckily it soon passed us by.
