Wadi Rum: A Second Impression
By Nada Momani
Wadi Rum for me wasn’t a totally new place, I had been there once before on a school trip, although going with Tala and Rakan was a totally different experience. It came as a surprise to me that I hadn’t noticed all these magnificent sites on my first visit to Rum.
It had totally another meaning this time, the sand, the mountains and the never-ending supply of tea.
We reached Wadi Rum at around noon; it was really hot and it was suggested that we go to ‘Al-Khazaly’ mountain as it would be the best place to go to at that time. We arrived there and found plenty of places in the shade to lie down and have a little nap (though the flies were a little bit annoying).
The night was magnificent; the cold sand, the dinner and the stars! The sky was extravagantly lit with dozens of twinkling stars. I had never seen so many stars before in my life!
Every time when I visit a new site in Jordan I immediately understand why I have this big love for our country. There are some things that you never forget and I know that this trip will be one of the unforgettable events of my life.
Thank you, Tala and Rakan, for this lovely trip. Hopefully you enjoyed our company
