Amman, Jordan

From Amman Centennial Parade

Happy Birthday, dear Amman….

My new co-worker Kristen and I had a slow brunch at Books@Cafe with Ahmed, and then made our way down to the Balad, where we saw the Centennial Parade. Arnoux managed to join us mid-way through, a little forlorn without his lady love….

We headed out for dinner at Jafra afterwards. It was spooky to walk through the downtown with all the streets closed. You’ve never seen the Balad so quiet! We could walk right down the center of the streets, and weren’t the least bit crowded!
