Today, I went to America. Actually, it’s true. By stepping
foot onto Embassy grounds, I was officially on American soil. Weird, right?
Some of the women from church invited us to join them at the embassy’s pool for
an afternoon of relaxation. Yes, please!
After trying to find our way to the official entrance, we
finally figured out what we were doing. We flashed our passports, made it
through security, and were welcomed into a club like any other you would find
in the States. The pool area was nice and we had a great time out in the sun.
The best part, however, came when we ate dinner. Yes, this was a delicious barbecue
burger. And, YES, there was bacon on it. I haven’t been craving pork products,
to be honest, but they are so hard to find here that this was definitely a treat. The
food, company, and atmosphere made it feel like an average afternoon in the
States. It was way fun, but I think I’m going to enjoy my Jordanian summer for
the limited time I have left.
