Biking...

Went biking again yesterday - this time through Irbid up to Umm Qais (25km).
The ride was completely made up of hills, up a big one then down a little bit, then up another big one then down just a little bit and so on (we were going up a mountain side apparently).
Anyway, when we got to Umm Qais we walked though the ruins up to a beautiful restaurant which had a fantastic view of the Dead Sea (were were meant to cycle down to the sea from Umm Qais, but the Jordanian army wouldn't let us on the last stretch of road for some reason). So anyway, the lunch was absolutely fantastic! There was a huge mezze for entre, and for the main I had the most delicious Thai chicken with roasted veges... mmmm. Best food I've had in Jordan so far, and subhan'allah not more expensive than Amman!

Anyway, today I'm incredibly sore and feeling sorry for myself. The girls didn't bother to go to the market yesterday so I have been eating junk all day (the supermarket here doesn't sell anything remotely healthy) and feel sick.

Presentation tomorrow. Must memorise.

Ma'a salama
