Running through Petra

I was very disappointed that we got only 2 hours in Petra. No time to relax and explore. No time for the tour talk. The bus stops on the way and back were always longer than necessary so that people could shop. We spent over 2 hours at the border crossing to Jordan even though we were the only people there. We spent close to 2 hours for lunch & waiting for the bus to pick us up. We arrived back in Tel Aviv 2 hours late so my pick-up had left and I needed to make other arrangements. Twenty Two hours on this trip for 2 hours in Petra.
