The Nabad Art Gallery is nestled off Rainbow Street in a converted residence.
The current exhibit is "Living on the Edge" by Serwan Baran, an Iraqi Kurdish artist.
Outside was a little seating area with a "tree" of resin baubles.
Along the street...Trumpet Vine
And Plumbago.
And Bougainvillea.
Jordan is really dry (about 10 inches of rain a year) and less than 2% of its land is arable. But now and then I saw some walls where homeowners had taken the time to plant (and water) flowers. And it's a magnificent sight.
And children's graffiti along the road with Amman in the distance.
I stopped in the local book store cafe which also is a bar. Had a beer and some wings.
The city center is down the hill from Rainbow Street and I decided to walk.
And then when Rainbow Street dead ends...stairs.
And the bustling (and chaotic) downtown...

One of my missions was to find a (pirated) DVD stall. I did and bought myself two trashy films for about $1.40 per.
Rode the bus home. Another good day.
