The day after the storm

Isn’t this picture really gorgeous? You can see the Abu Darwish Mosque, which I had no idea we could see from our rooftop. What do I know I guess… Amman is constantly proving to be smaller than I think. It’s amazing how much snow there is on the mountains, and this is East Amman, which isn’t as high as West Amman.

How long do you think my car needs to get out of this mess?

Snow men we came across on our walk:

    I can’t believe how beautiful it is. I am so bitter that the past two years I have been in Amman there were nothing but monsoonesque downpours, but the year I am not there it becomes a winter wonderland. You lucky things!

    I scrolled up and down numerous times looking at the pictures above, finally -I concluded that they are the nicest pictures that I have seen so far in comparison to all the other pictures that were displayed on Jordan Blogs during the snow storm and afterwards. Thank you Roba, you get hat tip on this one.
