iPhoneography // Fahaheel Bouncy Castle

Miss G and I go to Fahaheel often in the mornings and always see two bouncy castles, side-by-side, laying deflated on the ground.  She asks about them constantly during our visits – why they’re there, who they belong to, when they’ll be up – and I never have the answers because there is no one around to ask.  Today, however, when we went with friends a little later than usual, we were very surprised to see them inflated and just waiting for little jumpers.  Can you tell how thrilled she was?!

Al Kout Mall & Lookout Tower

10 / 7 / 1310 / 17 / 14

Al Kout Mall is one of my favourite nearby places to hang out in Kuwait… It has a beautiful water-lined walking path leading up to it, fountains that are choreographed to music, and tons of outdoor seating space.  Plus, if you go in the mornings, it’s very quiet, which I love.  Miss G and I visited this morning, enjoyed cool drinks outside, and then climbed to the top of the lookout tower.  Here’s our morning in photos…

A Walk Along the Gulf…

9 / 29 / 1310 / 6 / 13

After giving birth in Canada and returning to Kuwait with a 20 day old baby girl, I was very lucky to find myself in the company of 4 friends / fellow teachers who were also brand new moms {or very soon-to-be}.  All living in the same school-provided apartments was a huge blessing as a freshly minted mama {and a stay-at-home one at that} and the ladies and babes that Miss G and I spent our days with very quickly became like a second family.  Throughout the year, us mamas took turns hosting brunches, housing baby play dates, and organizing fun outings for us all to enjoy.  One of our weekly staples was a walk along the Arabian Gulf with a pitstop at Starbucks before heading back the opposite way again.  Comprised of saltwater air, sunshine, a palm-lined path, and a promise of a midpoint coffee, it was always a favourite outing of mine.

Fast forward three years.

Though {sadly} no longer snuggled up in a wrap and accompanied by a posse of adorable baby friends, today Grae and I did our favourite walk once again for the first time since being back in Kuwait.  It was a little too hot for comfort, but we parked in the shade of a tree at the sea club like we always do, made our way along the gulf, cooled down with some a/c and a cold drink, and even popped by Al-Kout to watch the dancing fountains before heading back.

Grae’s new fascinations now include magenta trash bins, searching for squirrels in the bushes along the water {sorry kid, not gonna happen!}, the roughness of palm trunks, and echo of the call to prayer.  Here’s our morning in photos…
