Thursday, December 12th - Christmas trees in Kuwait?

Another week over. We're heading out to Dubai later tonight. We'll spent the weekend, including Sunday; I took my personal leave. We were thinking of going to Oman, but the price was too steep for the amount of time we had.

We spent a little bit of time in shopping malls in the last few days. It really doesn't look like Christmas season. There are a few stores with Christmas decorations, and that's it. We saw some Christmas trees for sale in a few stores; check the pictures below.

It's been a week of running around trying to get my yellow fever shot. It took four days : one clinic on Sunday - they didn't have vaccines but sent us to a hospital that supposedly did. So off to the hospital on Monday, which told us that they do not do vaccines, but that another hospital would. So off to that hospital on Tuesday, which couldn't do it either because they only do vaccinations in the morning and we were there after school. So Wedenesday, I went back to that hospital to be told that they did not do vaccination for travel, but that the Ministry of Health, which was nearby, did all kinds of vaccination. So, late Wednesday morning, I finally got my yellow fever shot. That adventure was over!

We're not too familiar with those colors!

Looks a little more normal

Entering our Christmas section!

Our Kuwait Christmas tree!

Better than nothing!

The place is decorated for Christmas!!!
