Evening all you fine folks back home and around the world, just dropping in a quick update to assure you that I'm still alive. I'm sure of it, my legs still ache from climbing up and down Petra for the last couple of days, and they wouldn't hurt if I was dead...

Petra was great, but tiring. Perth was too damn flat, I'm not used to climbing up things any more. Awesome views, architecture and history anyway.

Prior to that - Amman is not, as they say, anything to write home about (but it's so easy to write these days, I'm doing so anyway). Some interesting spots nonetheless.

So, although other details are scarce, I've added piles of both Amman and Petra, enjoy.

I've also been playing around with panoramas - check out these (warning: large files, a couple of megabytes each, download and enjoy).

• Al-Deir, The Monastery
• Petra, from the High Place of Sacrifice
• The Amphitheatre

Off to Egypt tomorrow, goddamn expensive ferry - will bring you updates, with camels and pyramids, some time in the near future.
