Its a strange place. First a vehicle check 100m away from the hotel by gun-carrying , black balaclava security people and then walking through airport-style body screening before entering the hotel lobby. Inside is totally another world.Today a group of American was seen entering the hotel, heavily guarded, apparently having a break from assigment in Iraq. Jordan is not blessed with lots of oil like its Arab neighbours but seems to be doing not too bad. Main industry being tourism, agriculture and some helps from Uncle Sam. People seems to be happy and enjoying life. Restaurants seem to be always lively and full, but if you can't stand being in the company of chain smokers, this place is not for you.
