Upon arrival at the town of Rum, we met up with our guide, Saleh
who would be looking after us for the next two days. He has a campsite out on
the Wadi that we would soon be heading to.
He runs camping & safari tours of the Wadi. He really looked
after us & we highly recommend him for anyone thinking about doing this
sort of thing.
He is a lovely bloke who opened up his house to us & made us
feel comfortable before we headed out to the Wadi.
As a precursor, he took us to a place called “Lawrence’s Spring”,
just on the outskirts of Rum.
It’s a lovely (& green) oasis, a bit of a walk up the
mountain.
Here are some photos from the walk:
