The Family Room

This is our second sitting room, although calling it the family room would probably be more accurate. This is where we eat, play, and generally hang out.

This shot is looking back out toward the foyer where you can just see our shoe rack. It's pretty nice because it closes up, more like a shoe cabinet. Behind the photographer is the hall leading off to the kitchen, second bathroom, and our three bedrooms.

To the right is the exit to our balcony. Like just about everybody else in Amman, we're on a hill. From the street our apartment seems like it's on the ground level. But from the rear of the building we're actually one level up. The balcony is where we dry our laundry. Almost nobody has a dryer, and there are quite a few folks without an automatic washer. We are very fortunate in that we do have a washing machine, but we line dry like most everybody else. I'm curious to see how this works in winter.
