Wow Today we are exploring another desert, The Syrian Desert. The Syrian Desert isn't completely sand, so it is very rocky and arid here. Today we are getting a tour of the desert from a nomad that is nice enough to help us find our way through the desert with out getting hurt or dehydrated we hope. We also get to ride on some of the camels he herds. The Syrian Desert covers parts of many countries but we are in the part in Northern Saudi Arabia. During our "tour" we have passed many oil pipe lines and oases. We also learned that the full desert is 200,000 sq. miles which we thought was a random fact that we should add so you knew the size.
