Bob and Ann in Egypt and Jordan 2009

We had to kill a lot of time today before our flight to Amman. We tried to sleep in, but couldn't make it past 6:30. So we got up and went to the breakfast buffet. We said good-bye again to the people on our tour who were returning to the USA and then went for a walk around the block. We couldn't get all of the way being blocked off by construction at the airport. So we settled on going half way. We walked into the grounds of the hotel next to ours but decided that it was not up to our hotel's standards. So it wasn't worth a visit.

We read, watched TV and dozed until it was time for lunch. At 1:30 we checked out of our room and waited until 2:15 for our ride to the airport. We got through security without any problems and sat around our gate for a long time.

We got to Amman about an hour late. Our OAT guide, Iyad, picked us up and took us to the hotel, the Golden Tulip Grand Palace. I ate some dinner with the rest of the group but Ann decided to skip it and go to our room. She was wise. The buffet was not so good. Our room is very nice, though.
