Long Awaited Photos!

My apartment building! We are up on the 8th floor 2nd from the top. This bulidng is at the nice end of the street...

This lovely building is down the other end of my street, notice the flash new cars out the front!


A local bus stop!



This is a front part of the Marina Mall. Notice the green grass, the palm tree, the paving..It looks like a shopping mall from pretty much any where else in the world....Now look at the next picture.....

OK this is a shop right across the street! Notice the difference? And these buildings are right next to each other! This is what I mean by the lavish and well looked after next to the dirty and dusty ! Hate that sand to by the way its everywhere!


The Beach near the Marina - This is nice beach but very rarely used, swimming and sunbaking is not really a done thing here!!



I am not sure what this monument is in aid of as I was to lazy to walk out to check it out. :) However it looks good and I assume it has something to do with Ships hahaha sorry maybe I need to read more about Kuwait landmarks and Kuwaiti History!!




Marina Mall a popular shopping area for westerners and locals - its one of the nicer parts of town!

A view of the City from the Marina - Rather hazy day!


This fountain is inside Marina Mall I actually didn't want to take a photo of the fountain rather the guy in traditional dress - :) he just happened to turn around at the right time!! This is what most of the men wear around town! Hmmm very attractive!!

A view down our street from our apartment


The view from our balcony


A famous landmark in Kuwait The Kuwait Towers


A view of the towers from the bottom :) Am yet to go up the top!
