The day we went to Petra was notable for a couple of other
reasons other than seeing Petra.
First, we got to experience a fairly major sand
storm. And thank goodness, it started
just after we got back from Petra.

Second, we splurged on dinner and tried Petra Kitchen. This is a teaching restaurant where you pay
to learn to cook Middle East/Jordanian specialities. There were about 30-35 people in our group
and we ended up working with Joanna, Mary, Chris and Joyelle from
Colorado. We had a great time learning
how to make Lentil Soup, Baba Ganouj and Fattoush. The rest of the group made the other dishes
and we are looking forward to having a “Jordanian” night once we get home and
having everyone over to check out our new cooking skills.

The fruits of our efforts! |
