Something New

I can’t keep up with all the new places and buildings in Amman, but I am learning to accept that changes are taking place daily in our city. One new thing that did surprise me was the sight of two mounted policemen splendidly riding tall on their horses down Queen Alia Street just after dusk last night. They were leisurely promenading against traffic toward the Gamal Abdul Nasser Circle. I wondered what they were authorized to do, but whatever it was, I wished them and their horses good luck.
