Around Amman

Professor Riggs is in town to make sure we are all settling in to life in Jordan. Friday's adventure started with lunch at Hashem in the city center. Falafel, hummus, labaneh, pita... mmmm. We then walked to the old Roman amphitheater and the Citadel. Here are some pictures:

Our day ended with dinner at Jafra Restaurant with spiced lamb and chicken, stuffed grape leaves, more mezze, and hookah.
