All aboard the Giant Red Dot, reprise


“Let them sleep who do not know the final day is here. The very last, and we leave at dawn.” –Laibach, B Mashina 
        
                In a short while, we’ll be heading for the airport. The flight back will take close to twelve hours; if all goes well, I’ll sleep through most of that. Once in Montreal, it’ll be another few hours of waiting, then a relatively short flight home. 

                Jordan is a fantastic country. If you get the chance to visit, it’s well worth the time and expense. The people are wonderful, the food is an adventure, and the landscape is breathtaking.

                I had the good fortune to dig with a wonderful group of people under the guidance of some very fine minds. There were amazing bits and rough spots all around, but in the end, we’re all coming home more experienced, more confident, and somewhat more dehydrated than when we arrived. 

                See you on the ground!
