Don't Marry Your First Cousin

There is so much to see and learn about the history and culture of this wonderful land.  We enjoy being able to visit the historical sites whenever possible.  On Saturday the couples went to the Jordan Museum in downtown Amman.




We thought this ancient statue was interesting.  Someone joked that it was probably the child of someone who married his first cousin.

NOTE:  It is common for people to marry their cousins here.  These marriages very often produce disabled children.
