Hot In Here

I think that if one more person follows up "wow, I am excruciatingly hot
right now" with, "but, at least its a dry heat" I might be in arabia jail
faster than anticipated. Our tour guides first mistake was telling
me that the city on the opposite side of the river was in Palestine, as my
first intention was to find the pedestrian bridge across the casually
mentioned.  We are in Aqaba, Jordan, and despite the air condition-less
hotel stay we had last night, things are fantastic! I woke up at 3am thinking
that I was transformed into a piece of pottery, and being finished in a kiln.
The AC had decided to start pumping hot air into my room, and apparently
into the entire hotel. I marched down the the lobby to insist on getting a
new room, but to my disappointment no one was working. Shockingly my
first thought was not to go back to sleep, but instead to steal internet time,
"if no one was working, no one could charge me" I reasoned. I then
considered sneaking up to Cam and Linds room to sleep. On their spare
couch, but felt too guilty waking them up at now four am.
I went back to my room and sat in front of the opened mini fridge until it was
suitable to head back to sleep.

We are next heading to a bedouin village to sleep in 
the desert, and there I can test my true fear of the 
Desert Camel Spider.
