The lifelong BFFs are also seen color-coordinating their outfits in the recently shared snaps from the desert oasis. They were seen wearing “furwa” coats in dark brown in one of the snaps.

Oprah captioned the pictures with a detailed note about their journey: “Visited Jordan this week and there was so much to see and experience! We visited the site where John the Baptist baptized Jesus, Petra and all its fascinations, camels and the spot where the big boulder comes rolling out of Indiana Jones. So much history there in the ‘Rose City,’ voted one of the 7 new wonders of the world. It takes 3 days to really see it all we only spent 3 hours. Put it on your must-see list if you haven’t already!”

The highlight of the trip seemed to be the camel ride and the pout pose alongside the “ship of the desert” with Petra as the background. Mirror reports that the two BFFs also posed at a desertic canyon and visited the Biblical site where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist.
