Life in Amman

Well yesterday was another "rough" day in Amman. I had a devine mani pedi. The cost
was $15JD, around $20 us. My feet are so smooth. Then is was afternoon swim time with
Karen and Marylin. We finished booking our trip. When we return from Egypt we will spend 2 more days in Amman and then spend our last two days in Israel, Tel Aviv.
Last night I had drinks with Zaid and Neim in the Caballero bar, Marylin and her flame meet me there. One brief" where's my purse" moment and all was well again.. okay it was under my chair in the bar.. no more tequilla today! Then AHMED took me
to his house in AMMAN where I meet his family and his pet canaries, including 3 babies. They are a very traditional family and our very worried about him coming to
the USA to live and work for a year. His mother and sister wear traditional dress.
It was very lovely and they feed me watermelon, dates and turkish coffee. I think turkish coffee is the greatest. Right now its 10:15 and time for a swim. I have lunch
plans and maybe a movie tonight. who knows what adventures await. Right now the pool is calling.
