salaam ya masr (peace, egypt)

salaam ya masr. ashufak f-il-musta'bal, in sha' allah

musaafara fi-l-urduun (travelling in jordan)

laura and i went to jordan for a few days after classes ended. it was a sweet trip.

Petra, a city carved into and out of the cliffs

a sunset from on top of some old tombs. we found an old staircase that wasn't quite a staircase all the time to take us there

us

!

some talmudic inscriptions on a rock in the wadi rum desert. a few thousand years old. if you can read them, you're the only one.

but we know what that says

laura's foot and the desert

our hotel room in the morning

my bed after i woke up

a dungeon in Shoubak castle, built by Byzantine crusaders

the castle itself

and more of it

the dana nature reserve on a foggy, cloudy, soon to be rainy day; pardon the scratch on the lens

laura in tie dye at the dead sea beach

it may be a dead sea, but it's a sweet beach

i didn't know what to think of the old, fat man smearing mud all over himself at first

we're ephemeral beings
