Last year in Amman Jordan, I was walking down a steep hill toward the temple of Hercules. A young girl 10 or 12 and her smaller sibling were walking up the hill. Just as she was eye level with my waist, the wind gusted, blew my kilt all the way up to my chest and the young girl just exploded in laughter. I would really really like to think she was laughing with me....
