Petra-the city is not dead!

Hi y'all! Just got back from Petra in Jordan. It was a great trip, but some of the tombs are scary. After climbing up to look inside one of them, I could feel someone breathing on me-on the side of my face. Next time, I won't go off the beaten track-alone!

  • I would love to go to Petra and Egypt! Who knows a good travel agent!

  • Really good pics Charlize. I've been to Petra and would go back again in a heartbeat! I know what you mean by some of the scary tombs. I felt a bit uneasy too. The one Egyptian temple/palace seemed rather eerie as if ghosts stilled lived there. I felt like I was being watched as I climbed the steep staircase. I had to go back down before I made it to the top because it got to my nerves.

  • Really good pics. Count me in. I want to go too!

  • I want to go to both Petra and Luxor. Just looking at the pics, I can feel the ancient spirits. What an amazing place(s), with an incredible history. A must see!

  • Nice pictures. I think it's unanimous; we all want to go to Petra! :)

  • Nice pics - you've inspired me to go!

  • Hi Charlize..It's been awhile since I've been on the Boo. I too, recently got back from Luxor, Egypt. I didn't experience anything out of the ordinary, but then again, everything is out of the ordinary there! I've uploaded pics if anyone is interested. 3206821017?profile=original

  • WOW! Those pics are excellent! I want to go!

  • Hey Charlize! Reminds me of Korea. All strange things going on there. Really good pics! I was wondering, did the whole environment feel eerie or just the tomb?

  • Hey Charlize! Your pics are great! I wish I could go. I've heard of other places-I think Egypt, where people have felt cool breezes around their face while inside a tomb. I would still love to go. Petra has always been a trip yet to come.
