Good Bye Sarah Hello Mustafa

Sarah left today. I miss her already. Mustafa my favorite driver took us to the airport. I don't know why I feel so at home in Jordan but I really do. Of course, I realize living at the Kempinski is not really a life based in reality but it is a truly fab life. This does not seem to be the hotel of choice for all the contractors,
security etc from Iraq so it is very peaceful and quiet. My take is most Americans are not familiar with Kempinnski as a brand so they go to the Four Seasons, Sheraton, etc. Of course I am Ms Suzi all over the place and the staff seems to remember me from last year.
Marylin and I spent the better part of 2-1/2 hours at the travel agent. We leave
Friday for Egypt! We are taking an airplane and we've arranged transportation to and from the airports. We will be in Cairo, Luxor and SHARM EL SHIEK... yeah.. then we
return to Amman and then to Tel Aviv. We will either return to the Kempinski or
the Dead Sea for a day or two.
Last night I took Sarah and Marylin to the Royal Film Commission, where we had a private screening of the film, My Kuffiya.. then we went to dinner at the Bookset Cafe.. it is an ex-pat hang out with greek salad, pizza, spagehitti etc.. and of
course, hubbly bubbly! Yeah..
