In Amman finally, walking tour the first day, went to the area where they sell Nargillas. The variety is amazing, the owner of the shop personally gave me a lesson in which Nargillas come from which country.
Sitting on the street with Iraqi sellers the bus came by and I snapped this photo.
Got hungry for fallafal, at first these guys were reluctant to have their photo taken, but later agreed. The fallafal was first rate!
Needing a break and seeing no women in any of the street coffee shops I finally found this cafe on the top of a roof next to Al Hussain Mosque in the old city of Amman, Jordan. Here gathered men to have a quiet nargilla and game of cards.

This last picture is really perfectly composed and tone-colored, and I clicked for the enlargement, partly because I wanted to see what the woman looked like. Kloie, your caption reads: "Needing a break and seeing no women in any of the coffee shops I finally found this one on the top of a roof next to Al Hussain Mosque in the old city of Amman, Jordan. Here gathered men to have a quiet nargilla and game of cards." But I have looked and looked, and have failed to see the woman. "This one" in "I found this one" is referring to a woman, no? I remember that picture you took through the glass in Bangkok, and keep expecting the woman to slowly emerge through the mirror, finally taking over, occupying a plane somewhere midway between us and the men. Try as I may, I could never find the woman. You don't mean to say that she is at the table playing with the men, do you? I am referring to _MG_2945.jpg, the last picture.
ooops... looks like I didn't read the caption very carefully. Alas, I give up my search for the elusive woman. Next time maybe?
Anyway, a beautiful picture.
