Wandering Again - Maine, Israel, Jordan
My Mom had the opportunity to go to Israel and she asked me to go along with her. I of course was all about it!! My one condition was that we had to go to Petra, Jordan because it's been on my list of places I want to photograph forever, but I never thought I would ever go there. Well, we did!!!
These pics were taken with my Nikon, my point and shoot, and my cell phone... all mixed in together...

Let's go to the beach!!!
The Dead Sea was interesting, but far from the idyllic photos of good looking people floating serenely in blue green water surrounded by pure white salt formations. It was a bit more crowded and a lot dirtier. I think all the amazing photos I saw were taken on the Jordanian side of the sea. Yet another reason to go back to Jordan!!

Hmmm... what beach would that be?? Looks like dirt and debris to me.
And no water....
The Dead Sea has receded a huge amount over the years. We had to take a "train" (tractor with some carts attached) down to the beach from the spa which had previously been waterfront.
