Leaving home at 9am on a 'Sunday' was no mean feat.. but the promise of amazing scenery and of course a chance to get out of Riyadh and get some exercise spurred me on.Being May it was getting hotter and given the distance we had to travel the 'walk' would be around the hottest time of the day.. which didn't seem too onerous although in hindsight it was a bloody stupid idea :-)
When we started out it was 38 degrees and by the end it was 41.. the heat was oppressive... However, all said and done... it was a great day and the scenery was well worth it.. even if the 'exercise' took a back seat.
