I spoke with her while she's en route to JFK. She's pretty happy with the team of volunteers she's with--already made friends. She's the youngest of the bunch (as she said, "No surprise there."). About a quarter of the volunteers are retirees.
They will stay in Amman until the 28th, then move to Mafraq for 2 months in language school.
She's feeling better (she's had a cold), and she's looking forward to what's ahead.

I occasionally follow your blog as I also have a daughter, Hannah with Down Syndrome. My cousin, Lauren also just recently left for the Jordon with the Peace Corp. She is around your daughter Kate's age; in her early 20's. What a small world!!!
