« ACOR Library | Main | Ma’a Salaama – Goodbye (from Harvey) »

Last day at ACOR

Just a quick post to say we wrapped up the program yesterday. Michele gave the final session on leadership and we had a small "graduation" ceremony complete with certificates for each participant. We had a celebratory dinner at one of the nicest restaurants in Amman. Michele, Harvey, and I all received gifts from the Iraqis, which was very touching and a bit overwhelming. Fortunately Harvey had warned me that this was going to happen, so I wasn't taken by surprise. Between what I purchased and the gifts I received, it was tough to close up my suitcase.

Today Michele and I are off to the Dead Sea for a little tourism and relaxation, and we fly back to Boston on Saturday morning. Not sure if I'll have internet access between now and then, so this may be it for a few days, but I'll be sure to send in some concluding thoughts at some point.
