Snake
|
I woke up around 9am and wanted to get going
because it was my birthday! My friend slept in and got angry
when I woke him up by accident (shower, get stuff from my
bag, door). After a long time of not nice atmosphere we apologized
and it was all better. Afterwards we hung out on the balcony.
I wrote postcards and my friend slept/read.
We finally decided to hike up to Petri (opposite
to the Petra main road, going up hill a lot!). It was very
warm and tiring (more for my friend a bit) but the view on Petra
was so nice form up there (especially half-way) and I was
glad/proud to have made it to the top. On the way though,
there was the dump. It stank a lot! There was also an Army
base a bit higher, so they have a view on the mountains around,
the water, etc and can react quickly against enemies. Up in
Petri, we encountered with an old Greek man. He tried to talk
to us, but we didn't understand a word. After a while he just
walked a way.
We came back down, showered and left to go
eat. On the way there on the path we saw a snake!! We ate
at a tavern called Marina, on the sea-side. My friend ate a big
bowl of Easter soup: drawn form lamb's head with lamb intestine
and liver. The worse is that even hours after he could still
taste the intestines in his mouth. Bah! The other food was
yummy, and even the cats and dog wanted some! My friend game
some liver to one cat which then wanted to jump on his lap.
The owner forgot to charge us the mixed grill that Arnoud
had but us being too honest, we told the server. We dropped
back by a mini-market and walked back to Sunrise in the cold.
Good night!
