The best part of my second day in Petra was meeting Mohammed and his family. On the way down via Wadi Farasa, I saw Mohammed tending sheep. His older sister was the only one in the family who could speak a bit of English, and she graciously invited me to drink shai in their cave.

The mother and brother arrived later on the donkey, referred to as "taxi." We drank endless cups of sugary tea while the children entertained me by wrestling, giving me pretty striped Petra rocks, and putting me on top of the donkey for a ride around the cave. I screamed like a baby--the ground felt really slanted!

Near the end I was lucky to get this gorgeous pose from the brothers. The cave, like all the rock in Petra, was just stunning.
