Petra, Jordan - The Bedouins


8/28/09 - Two days ago




Petra's ancient city is still inhabited by about 20 Bedouin families who live in the caves. Most of them make a living by selling things to tourists. Since they are so used to conversing with foreigners, a lot of them speak English. It was fascinating to talk with them!
This old woman was a chain-smoking fiend!
The Flintstones sign says "Bedouin Accessories & More." Ha!
