Visa, Food, and Birds Amman Jordan

Wadi Rum Cave Camping – planetofhotels So far, my time in Amman has been interesting, but also quiet and relaxing. There’s lots to see, so I’ve delayed exploring the desert – Petra and Wadi Rum – until the weather gets a bit warmer. Even though temperatures haven’t been extreme in Amman (40s to 60s), it’s been windy and quickly gets cold after sunset. I imagine desert nights are even more chilly.…

When legendary performer Josephine Baker and her party were refused food service at the Stork Club on October 16, 1951, the NAACP organized a picket line in front of the chic night spot. Seen on October 22 are Bessie Buchanan, Baker's personal secretary; Laura Z. Hobson, author of "Gentleman's Agreement, a novel about anti-Semitism; and Walter White, executive secretary of the NAACP.

Stay alive

Some encouraging posts that I had planned for yesterday, but the Russians showed their vile murderous face once again, so it was not the right time.

I hope that for every Ukrainian who has lost their home to Russia, there will be a time of recovery like this family of storks. Unfortunately, for people who have lost their loved ones, the only healing method is to achieve justice for their murders. Every Russian must pay for their crimes. 

Please don't ignore our fighting, keep spreading our voices, and donate to our army and combat medics (savelife.in.ua, prytulafoundation.org, Serhii Sternenko, hospitallers.life, ptahy.vidchui.org, and u24.gov.ua).

All the Things a Bird Is All the things a bird is, swinging in a tree, He's the builder of a house as high as high can be, He makes it cozy, safe, and strong, A pleasant home the summer long. He's a traveler through the air, He knows the streets to anywhere, When autumn comes away he'll fly Along the south road of the sky. He's a singer in the sun, Calling out to every one, To hear him tell from East to West The heart that sings and loves is best. He's a teacher telling you Be strong and busy, wise and true, And learn to journey, build and sing, And find the good in everything. by Annette Wynne
