Every international day we all learn something new. With Jordan both Chuck and I were very surprised and happy to find out that though the years Jordan has compromised a lot to try and keep the peace in that area of the world. This was something that neither of us had known and it was wonderful to learn.<\/p>\n

Their culture demands a level of of hospitality I don’t believe we could handle. We read about tribes that require 3 days of hosting someone\u00a0as a guest before you can even start to talk business. Having lived my whole life in the USA, I could most likely not coupe with that. We just run on a way too fast pace.<\/p>\n

We enjoyed a lovely lunch of Jordanian Mansaf<\/a>, Fatayer Jibneh<\/a>, falafel<\/a>, hummus (we did not make the hummus) and Kanafeh<\/a> for desert.<\/p>\n

We colored flags.<\/p>\n

Google maps was not a big help but we did find a lot of pictures that people had taken of Jordan and we read a bunch of facts and listened to some interesting music. All and all it was very nice for us as well as the kids to learn new things.<\/p>\n
