Wow, that Mariott hotel in Amman was wonderful. Well, I slept well, but something Dayna ate didn’t agree with her and she was up a few times. But it was so comfortable that I am pretty sure she did better there than she would have anywhere else, with the same issues…
But the Amman Mariott was so, so nice, I need to get some business dealings going so can get back here!
