We have been in Jordan for 3 months!! Time has flown and dragged at the same time, as we have been super busy with school and making new friends, but missing our friends and family so far away.
Today we were due to go to Amman and extend our visas for another 3 months, after which we will need to exit the country and then reenter in order to begin the whole process again! We were half expecting it to be an ordeal, as it was last time. But it seems that Amman is much more organised than Zarqa. So we spent half an hour filling out some simple forms and a brief chat with a member of staff, and now we have to return in 2 weeks to confirm our visa and stamp our passports (which we have been guaranteed will be fine). We were also told that if we take a letter confirming that we're volunteering at the School we can get a visa for a year, which would take away all this back and fore visa hassle. So lets just pray they keep their word and it can be that simple!!
We're grateful that today was so straight forward and want to say a big thank you to Auntie Bekah for Lilian and George's magazines, we saved them for today and they were a welcome surprise!!
Great, glad it all went so smoothly! Glad Lili and George enjoyed their magazines - a little reminder of home! Speak soon, Bek & Si x
