Wadi Rum (Jordan, part II)

The next day, we spent a half day at Wadi Rum which was made famous by Lawrence of Arabia.

Unlike the desert of Dubai (which is flat), the desert area of Wadi Rum is hilly – great for rock climbing! – and the scenery is quite spectacular.  We hired a driver to take us around and here are some of the sights.
