Third time's the charm!

Alhamdullah!  Alden has a Syrian visa!  He went to the embassy yesterday and it was entirely empty.  It was 3 pm and even the parking lot was empty, save an old Caddy that had seen better days.  Weird.

This morning, Alden happened to be driving near the embassy, so he stopped by.  It was 8:45 when he walked up to the consulate entrance.  As he walked up, the staffer that he had interacted with before, got out of a parked car.  Was he sleeping in the car?  Perhaps.  Alden doesn't judge.  

"Why are you so early?!?"  

Alden explains that he happened to be in the neighborhood...

The staffer took Alden's raffle ticket and went inside- instructing Alden to remain on the street.  The embassy staffer clearly isn't a morning person...  A few moments later Alden got his passport, with a dual entry visa. 

So now Alden wonders which of Syria's neighbors should he visit?  He is flying in and out of Jordan- so that leaves Lebanon, Turkey, Iraq, because he can't get back if he gets an Israeli stamp...  Alden is open to suggestions.  Perhaps catch a cheap flight to Sharjah on Air Arabia?
