Petra

We went to Petra with Todd's parents. It is still a dirty, dusty walk but well worth it. We didn't make the time to hike clear up to the Monastery and only made it just past the treasury and saw more amazing creations carved into the sides of the mountains.

Once again, Nic and even T were swarmed with people wanting to take their picture. Nic gets pretty tired of it. We want her to be polite but she gets tired of people stopping her fun to ask her questions, kiss her cheeks, and take her picture. She will be the one who will not want to be famous when she grows up because she knows what it's like not to be able to just enjoy being where you are and doing what you want. Sometimes Todd and I have to run interference like a body guard or manager or something. Sometimes we bribe her to be polite and smile for the camera. We owe her a lot of McFlurrys and Happy Meals.
