So, to make it easier on everyone I have found this fabulous little tool, which allows me to post updates and upload piccies all at once!! Yes, I know I really am quite the technological wizard these days!!!! So here we go....

My last few weeks of this year...

Well it was nearly our last week here in Kuwait with the three
flatmates all together so we hooked up with a contact and went out on a
little boat trip for the day! We went out with the intention of scuba diving,
It didn't quite work out that way...PARTY CENTRAL is what happened!!
Anyway, it was a good day and I thought I'd make it probably my last entry
of this academic year...This isn't the boat we were on but it is lovely isn't it....


As you can see the three of us had a great time...




And we ended the day with this sunset...
Well that's not actually how it ended - the boat got stuck
after the tide went out and we had to wait until midnight
to go home!!! But this view made it all worthwhile!!!

My Latest travels...

So what's news I hear you ask..... I went to Bahrain a few weeks ago for the weekend, and I am ashamed to say THIS is the only photograph I managed to produce from the whole experience!!! It was my 3rd trip to Bahrain but the first for pleasure, the first two were Visa related and were literally day trips that took me from the airport to the Embassy and back again!! So this time there was more to do (actually...I didn't do ANYTHING!!!!) oh my! Anyway, I posted the photo as it's the only momento I have!!!!

I also went to Dubai for the weekend last week. It was so nice, everything was so clean and greenery EVERYWHERE!! I saw the man made indoor ski slope...I visited the Emirates Mall, I took a stroll down by Dubai Creek (where there were some lovely luxury Cruisers floating around, and Dows (spelling??) decorated with fairy lights)...I spent a whole day relaxing in a pool on the roof of a hotel... And generally just relaxed!!!! I had a good time, in fact I had such a good time I forgot to take any photographs!! Sorry!!!!
