Day 3 - Heinous Headwinds Hamper Progress

A fine start for our cycle from Dana to Wadi Musa - only 55 Kms or so but still over hilly terrain. We get a ride to the top of the plateau and then the ride begins. But the Southerly winds made sure we knew they were there with the riding tough at times as we seemed to be forced to pedal the descents as well. Gusts of around 35-45 kph with a steady wind of around 25-30 kph.  Slow and steady were the words of the day - but we enjoyed a nice lunch in Shawbak filling up on falafels and coffee.  Below is a video travelling through the village






 We arrive at our destination in Wadi Musa around 3.00pm in time for some ice cream, exploring and other adventurous activities.
