for what its worth

we arrived in Amman, Jordan around 6pm local time, after our 12 hour trek above prince edward island, the atlantic ocean, ireland, england, the mediterreanean, and israel. after basically paying a guy to leave us alone with our baggage, we joined rick (schupp, as in shoop-shoop-a-doop) in his hyundai van for the crazy drive to a community fellowship group his family participates in (the driving is crazy due to the fact that there are apparently no rules of the road manuals in amman, jordan). and it was dark when we arrived . so, for what it is worth, for what we have seen of amman, jordan, with the roadside picnic-ers and the western-styled arab scene girls alike, its been interesting...and we drove by the world's largest popeye's chicken (possibly a true statement) on the way to the schupp home. day one. complete.
