JPI Series: Good Morning Petra

Good morning awesome world.  ^_^

Today we still have the same call time, 6 in the morning.

I woke up early so I'll have ample time to prep myself before I head to our bounty breakfast. 

Once all dolled up I went to the other side of my bed near the balcony.

I pulled the curtains to the side, opened the sliding door and...

OMG!!!

The view was terrific plus the chilly breeze. :)  It's sooo purrrfect!!! 

Then I told myself, "I have the best morning today." Ayeee!!! 

Soon after my photo shoot,  

I went down to join the others for breakfast. 

The morning meal was a buffet, and it was tummy filling. 

We chatted and laughed while we ate. 

It was gratifying.

Later on, we brought our stuff down as we need to go to our next destination. :) 

By the way, we stayed (just for a night) in Edom Hotel,

which was a few meters away from the main entrance to Petra.  

Awesome!! 

JPI Series: Rose Red City

the view when we went on the bus

Petra is an archeological area in the south of Jordan, 

which was dubbed as the Rose City because of its red-rose colored sandstone hills. 

Others call it The Lost City because it was hidden from the world for centuries.

The site was unknown until a Swiss explorer discovered it in 1812.

Then Petra became a UNESCO World Heritage in 1985 and was named amongst the 

New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007.
