Columbus Blue Jackets alternate captain Zach Werenski and his fiancee Odette Peters took a trip to Egypt this week. On Tuesday, Odette shared a carousel of pictures from their vacation on Instagram.

One of the pictures showed Zach and Odette riding camels with the Pyramids of Giza in the background. Zach wore a black t-shirt and khaki pants, while Odette had on a white top, black shorts and sunglasses. Both wore traditional Arab-style headscarves tied around their heads.

“Habibi Z 🐫,” Odette captioned the post.

Another photo showed the couple standing side by side on a stone walkway, with multiple pyramids visible behind them. One picture captured a wide view of the desert with the pyramids in the distance.

Odette was seen sitting on a camel and raising her arm in one slide. The next zoomed in on a camel’s face with the pyramids behind it.

Another photo featured the Sphinx under a clear blue sky. One pic showed Odette hugging a camel while smiling, with pyramid structures in the background.

Zach Werenski and Odette took a trip across Europe in the offseason

Zach Werenski and Odette Peters toured Europe ahead of the couple’s summer wedding. After visiting Switzerland and Germany, the couple headed to Greece earlier this month.

They stayed at the Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel, a luxury resort by the sea in Athens. Last week, Odette shared a couple of Instagram stories showing highlights from their stay in the Greek capital. One photo showed a panoramic view of the sea from an elevated spot at the hotel.

The image featured luxury yachts on the deep blue water, a scenic coastline and rows of sunbeds and umbrellas near the water’s edge.

Another photo gave a closer view from ground level, featuring a wooden deck lined with cushioned lounge chairs facing the calm sea. White umbrellas were beside the chairs, and more yachts could be seen in the distance under a clear blue sky.
