Back for more.
We purchased a two day ticket for Petra because you really can’t see it all in one day. It was another chilly walk down the Siq to the Treasury.
The main sight on our list for the day was the Monastery. To reach the Monastery you have about a one hour hike ahead of you, and plenty of tauts trying to get you on a donkey. We opted out on the donkey ride which I think was a good idea.
The Monastery is the second most impressive structure at Petra after the Treasury. It’s not as decorated as the top billed attraction, but it’s quite a bit larger.
Molly and Caitlin climbed a bit higher to get another perspective while I chatted with another traveler and played with some kitties.
After the Monastery we took another little hike out towards the spring. We never found the water but we did enjoy a few snacks and a nice view.
We also saw the Coliseum before walking back out the Siq and getting back into the car.
Our next stop? A very unnerving hotel at a truck stop.
