Hey Everyone,
Well I and my teammate Gabe arrived safely to our new home in Jordan! The trip here went really smoothly and so far I'm not feeling the effects of the ol' jet lag so hopefully that holds up. Had a long layover in Frankford so we had most all day to go out into the city and enjoy some brats and brotchen and some nice gelato.
We finally arrived in Jordan about 2:00am local time. By the time we were to our apartment and just as I was about to lay down for the nights sleep, 5:00am, the call to prayer came across the loudspeakers. My first day in Jordan was ending just as so many others was just begining. I must say it was beautiful and a bit mystical. An exotic language, a strong but musical voice, knowing how many ears were hearing and responding to this call. Wow! Everyday routine for locals. Bran new experience for me.
Actually off to a wedding here in just a bit so more to come but I'm off for now.
