Alpine wildflower

I found these beauties along the Tour de la Vanoise in the French Alps. They appear to be some kind of thistle flower past its prime. I fell in love with their exotic, spindly look.

No words can describe how I felt today seeing the divine beauty of Petra. Built in 400 BC, hand carved out of rock, this place is absolutely surreal. Can hardly wait to rise at dawn to go back and see more. #visitpetra #visitjordan #beintrepid

Have you ever taken a ride on a camel before? While it is an ancient tradition that the Arabs have been participating in for centuries, it isn’t the most normal thing to do. First, getting on the camel before he stands up is easy. Trying to stay atop when he does actually stand is a bit strange. Then you are so high up in the sky. As the camel starts to walk you jolt back and forth and back and forth trying to balance yourself and stay on. After about ten minutes the uncomfortableness sets in as it is much harder than riding a horse. Yet to be so high in the sky in the desert is truly spectacular. An experience I will never forget. ✨✨✨✨ #Beintrepid #Wadirum #Jordan #discoverjordan #visitjordan

Morning just after sunrise at our camp at Wadi Rum. So much beauty and peace. The expansive beauty of this place is hard to capture or put into words. #Beintrepid #jordan #discoverjordan #wadirum #visitjordan

Nothing beats riding in the back of a pick up truck in the middle of a desert in a hailstorm! Now that was unexpected. After the thunder and lightening stopped we arrived at our Bedouin camp for the night as they were tending the camels. Feels like being on the set of a Star Wars movie. Quite surreal! #beintrepid #jordan #traveljordan #discoverjordan #wadirum#visitjordan

Friday I am off exploring once again. While it may not be to the mountains of Mont Blanc, it is to an entirely new destination and part of the world I have never seen. I am thrilled to be traveling with @intrepidtravel to join in on my first ever trip to Jordan. ✨✨✨✨✨ It should be quite the experience! Just what my body,mind and soul need. Some rejuvenation and exposure to a new culture and land. Stay tuned..:.
