Day One - Check!

Day one in Amman, Jordan... Check! The day has just flown by. However it didn't start until 2 pm today. In my defense, I had only gotten 6 or so hours of sleep in 48 hours prior to that. I started the day eating shamaam, a fruit that is similar to cantaloupe, but is white and has a slightly different texture. Then I walked to a local shop to buy other food including hummus, pita bread, potatoes, and yogurt. After unpacking, my roommates and I walked for about 20 minutes to get to the guy's apartment and on the way back to our apartment, we hailed a taxi. I didn't actually call for the taxi, but I spoke to the cab driver – in Arabic. So I consider that to be the first taxi I've ever gotten for myself. Already learning new things!
