Irbid at Night





Last night we did some running around after sunset, a little of which involved goofing off on Shariah Jama (University Street). This is by far one of the coolest streets in Irbid, and I would spend much more time there if expedient. As it is, I got some great pictures. Oh, and at my host sister's insistence, we both weighed ourselves. I found out I am 60.250kg and my height is 1.80m. Can someone translate this? :) Also, I've found out that this is the land of the Kia Sephia (my old car). I don't know why. Jordan must have a great trade agreement with South Korea, because they just aren't that common in the U.S. Also, something kind of funny happened. People must not see many tourists here, or just don't take that many pictures of street scenes, because as I was aiming the camera, the guy driving the bus stopped the whole bus so as to not obscure my view. It was such a sweet gesture that I nearly died laughing. On a different note, I had taken some pictures of Irbid during the day, but for some reason my camera ate them. I'll have to retake them.
