Wadi Rum is an area of desolate beauty, rocks pointing to the sky, natural rock bridges: a dry, barren landscape. At night, the absence of lights turns the sky into a marvellous ceiling of stars.
Later in the afternoon, as the sun travelled towards the horizon, the desert, rocks and jebels turned all yellow, orange, and red, setting the landscape on fire. We stopped just in time to see sunset, the sun quite suddenly disappeared behind a jebel and coloured the few clouds in the sky a deep red while leaving us in a dark landscape. In the evening, we had dinner at a small encampment at a campfire. After finishing dinner, we just laid back on our backs to enjoy a bright, sparkling sky loaded with stars. It was the prelude to a good night's sleep in a bedouin tent.
