love this girl
found some old magnifying glasses ggaaaaaaaaa SO SORRRYYY it's taken foreverrrr but just got back with diala from an unbelievable weeeekend in wadi-rum and aqabaaaa!!!
Thursday night, we headed out with a bunch of Diala's buddies on a bus 3-4 hours south to Wadi-Rum aka DESERTTTT! There was a huuuuge annual dance/dj show going on called Distant Heat that took place outside in the sand and in the middle of what looked like no where! Goes from 10pm-10am and so you can only imagine what it looks like as the sun rises in the desert as you've been dancing in the dark all night...WOW! **I am weak and unlike non-stop Jordanians, I couldn't make it past 4am hahaha but luckily, Diala woke me up around 5 or 6 and then went back on my dancing feet!!! hahaha truly an outstanding, kinda painful experience!!! hahaha I LOVED IT! And definately won't forget it! 😊
Just when you think the party is done, we were whisked away another hour south to Aqaba!!!! You can even see Israel in the distance and the water is sooooo clear I couldn't look down when I was swimming because I swear I could sea big shadows of who knows what!!!!! But it
is an amazing town on the Red Sea that is already on it's way to becoming the new Cancun or Puerta Vallarta, I swear...blahhhh but they're looking ahead and building some areas that are designated for locals only, away from the touristy resorts.
Anywho, the party continues since this whole thing is a 2 day event...sooooo exhausting!!! Somehow people don't stop dancing....Diala and I didn't get it....
We stayed with Diala's buddy, Fallas, who has a great condo and huuuge boat right on the ocean. So beautiful! We stayed through the weekend and it was a blast...It's crazy how different the areas are in Jordan...you got your city...desert...beach...oceans!!! gaaa I haven't even been to the touristy sights yet!
Tired...i must sleep! muah
