World Cup fever is pretty big here is Jordan. We live above a restaurant called Al Bal which is very popular among the world cup fans because of it's big screen TV's that broadcast every game. Every night after someone wins the game there will be party with people singing and chanting uintil early in the morning.



We went to dinner at The Royal Autombile Club of Jordan the other night with Daud, whio is a university of Wisconsin Green Bay graduate. This place is kind of the country club for Jordan, very ritzy. The cab drive who brought us hereripped us off though.

WE were supposed to attend a 4th of july party at the US embassy, but Alex, the current group leader decided that it was taking an unnessasary risk because Ossama in Laden recently released a Video in which he talked about overthowing King Abdullah and attaking westerners. We ended up having a party on the roof of our hotel.
