Day 3 Wadi Rum to Aqaba

So we are up and it’s camel ride time back to the entry gate ! Again weird scenery all around and camels taking their time ! We are heading to Aqaba on the Red Sea and maybe a swim !
Aqaba meaning “difficult place to reach”- as it was surrounded by mountains and difficult to access until the roads . It’s an old strategic port that had been enlarged as in 1968 Saudi Arabia gave them some land !! It’s the right hand part of the V of the gulf and faces Israel / Eiliat and Egypt / Taba .
It’s hot 32C at noon and rising to 38 at 5pm ! It’s only 30 after the sun goes down . Fortunately we got to the beach and the swimming pool! The resort is blessed with a sandy beach with many colourful fish and some attractively coloured coral via snorkelling !Baca lagi
