my friend managed to cross the syrian border into jordan in the middle of the night on saturday. she went in an ngo-sponsored SUV convoy. (i suppose SUVs can be ok sometimes). she has sought refuge in Amman, which is overflowing with other refugees at the moment. so, for now, she is ok. i am so happy to report this. though there are still lots of people in a lot of danger in Lebanon right now. we must keep them in our thoughts and prayers.
