五月三日
早晨不到六点把她俩从甜蜜的睡梦中hao起来再去佩特拉看一眼,因为俺们跟司机约好了中午去瓦迪拉姆沙漠。虽然她俩不太情愿还是配合了。起早的原因是这样公园里面不会有很多人,这个点儿售票处还木友开门儿。只能是已经有票的人才能进来。等俺们悠闲地晃悠到了“财政部”(treasury)在长凳上坐着端详半天了才见其他游人和旅行团蜂拥而来。只有早晨才能看见阳光照在财政部上。
等俺们回到酒店时司机早已经在等了。“他的火腿”这次又把俺们包给了他的一个小兄弟,这小伙子挺随和,说话也随便,不像前面那两个有些作态。俺先让司机带俺们去瓦迪姆萨镇子上去吃午饭。说明一下,佩特拉是个遗址公园,是个旅游区,在瓦迪姆萨小镇的边上。佩特拉吃住比镇子上贵多了,但是到佩特拉来玩住在入口附近的确方便。俺们昨天吃饭还让人给忽悠了,近15美元的饭钱让人收了快30美元,多出来的说是税。跑回tripadvisor上一问,人家说没那么回事儿,税应该是16%。如果找店里要正式发票他就不敢这么收了。
镇子上的饭又好又便宜,小伙子带着俺们去了一家肉夹馍店当地发音听着像“吃完了吗"(shawarma)。又好吃又便宜!这边的人貌似都很喜欢小孩儿,俺家宝宝经常被人要求一起合影吃饭时经常有免费赠送,午饭时店老板给了一个苹果和一个甜点一类的东西。
瓦地拉姆沙漠,阿拉伯的劳仑斯拍摄地。
佩特拉去沙漠也就是一个多小时的路。因为这小伙子说话比较随便俺就跟他散扯上了。他说他家不传统,父母夫妇俩就他一个孩纸,而且也不是很宗教主导的。说他也尝过几回酒。他的爱好是抽水烟(hookah或shisha)。烟丝也叫shisha,是一种加了味道的烟丝。后来在伯利恒俺好不容易拿到了婆娘的批文抽个水烟结果因为他们只有普通烟丝而作罢,郁闷!扯远了。。。 后来问他这么热的天街上的女人都裹得很严实是自愿的还是由什么着装规定,他说都是这么穿的。又问他如果哪个女孩自己高兴穿着小汗衫儿短裤就出来了会怎样?他的回答把俺和俺婆娘都吓得后脊梁发寒 - “他爸爸会杀了她!”- 就这么简单!那这不犯法么?“政府不会去管这种事情的!”
沙漠里很热,帐篷里木有空调,俺们就在营地的大帐篷里喝茶看风景。其实他们要是卖酒的话这真是个能坐着喝一天酒的好地方。但是人家有禁忌又不主动问俺还是收敛着点儿吧!约旦好像对酒管的不严,餐馆里好像都卖但是不主动。营地里暂时好像只有俺们一家。下午又来了一对夫妇。可见生意是一落千丈!
因为天气热所以原定的四驱沙漠游要往后推一会儿。结果没一会儿就开始狂风大做,原本很惬意的海市蜃楼变成了风沙的世界。倒是别有一番景色。导游貌似很乐观,说是四驱游不行的话就今晚看日落,明天一早去四驱游。结果落日的确是看到了,很美。回来后吃晚饭。这两天运动量有些大!
5/3/2015 petra - wadi rum
after such a loaded hiking day yesterday we were all a bit tired. the good night sleep helped us bounce back. not as fresh as new, but gave us enough energy to have another peek at the treasury this morning, under the sun because it was in the shade when we saw it yesterday.
we headed out at little after 6am. not many people in the park yet. by the time we were sitting on the bench staring at the treasury we saw loads of people in tour groups coming in. we stayed there for a solid two plus hours and started to walk back. our driver was already waiting for us in the lobby by the time we got into the hotel. the driver is a nice young man, we enjoyed talking to him very much.
by 11am we got our stuff together and took off for wadi rum. before we left wadi musa we had the driver stopped by at a shwarma place and had a great lunch fix. nice prices, no special "tax", it was all good. the shop owner was so fond of our little girl she got fruits for free.
it was a nice drive to wadi rum, taking about an hour. our guide at the camp met us at a location not far from the camp and took over from there. it was really hot in the middle of the desert around noon time. our tent was too hot to sit in. so we took the refugee in the main open tent. nice view of the desert. too hot to do the 4x4 truck tour right away. had to wait till it cooled off a little bit. not more than an hour passed we had a little sand storm coming on. looked like it was impossible to get the 4x4 tour done this afternoon. our guide offered to take us to see the sunset later today and moved the 4x4 tour to tomorrow morning.
we just sat there watching the sandstorm. didn't sound great but it actually entertained us pretty good - not everyday we get to see a sandstorm in a desert from the comfort of a large tent. with some music playing it was quite romantic. if we could get some champangne to sip on it would have been top notch. although booze is easily available in jordan i still didn't want to do anything that knowingly locals would be against. so i just took it easy.
around 6pm our guide came to get us for the sunset viewing. it turned out to be very beautiful. we all had a great time. i took so many pictures, regretting that i didn't prepare myself enough for sunset shooting setups. without proper preparations it's not a good idea to carry 4+kg camara gears and not getting the best results. a lesson well learned! fortunately, my shots turned out pretty good, but they could've been great.
after the sunset we had the moon up on the other side of the sky, simply beautiful! afterwards we came back to the camp for dinner, which was nicely presented but average in taste. overall, another great day! so looking forward to tomorrow's 4x4 tour!
