The Return of the Clouds

I was intrigued by a lone cloud over Amman that I saw last Sunday on our three hour traffic jam drive to Manal's house for a feast. The lonely cloud morphed and eventually there were more clouds over Amman in the blue Jordanian sky...Monday and Tuesday were clear, but on Wednesday before our drive to Rabia's school in Ma'an there were low lying morning clouds that created an amazing sunrise over the school's olive trees. The morning sky was overcast by the time we walked to the bus for our trip to Ma'an.This morning, Friday morning, the return of the clouds is complete. Not only is it overcast, but the morning sun has been obscured by the clouds.I do believe that it will be clear though by the time we drive to the Ma'in Hotsprings in the early afternoon.
