“Tonight, we dine in Wadi Rum!”
Those of you who have seen Lawrence of Arabia, David Lean’s 1962 epic, might remember this classic line and the film’s gorgeous desert backdrop, shot on location in Jordan. Well, we were fortunate to be able to visit Wadi Rum and enjoy a Bedouin-style meal during our honeymoon as we spent a night camping beneath the stars in the desert. We also visited Petra, the ancient “rose city” remarkably well-preserved for 2,000 years. The entire week was just amazing, and we were thinking of all of you as we relived moment after moment of our wedding day. We can’t wait to show you photos from the trip.
Here’s just three: one of Jenny in the red dunes of Wadi Rum; the ampitheatre at Petra; and the newlyweds at sunset at the Dead Sea.
Should we go East, West or North? May 23, 2006

This is the burning question as we decide on a honeymoon destination. A few things that appeal to us are: sun, beach, no hurricanes, and making our moms worry. (But this is unavoidable no matter where we go.) The three leading candidates right now are
- Jordan and the Dead Sea
- Vancouver, British Columbia
- Hawaii
We'd love to hear what you think!
