Walking around Amman...


Here are some random pictures of our time in Amman....



 Doesn't the coke look so much cooler in Arabic?




To get an idea what our neighborhood looked like:








A Christian church in Abdoun...





It was crazy how many expensive cars there were in our neighborhood! To Jordanians, cars are very important. A native told us that when the car has a bump/scratch, most of the people get it repaired/removed immediately.





I was fascinated with what they do with their trees... almost like a competition.










*Yumm* Middle Eastern pastries: Kunafa and Baklava!








Kunafa- probably the most traditional pastry in Jordan:


"We came, we saw, we conquered"



I didn't know they had Domino's Pizza in Jordan...



 Another very traditional snack:



One afternoon, Anthon and I went to the hotel pool. As I was lying in the sun, I woke up because I heard tons of honking.... no wonder!
