Fun City in Gate Mall

9 / 26 / 1410 / 17 / 14

Since Kuwait is so hot for much of the year, I’m always on the lookout for fun indoor play spaces that give Miss G the freedom to play and burn off some energy while keeping us cool and out of the sun.  Since returning for the current school year, we’ve visited Fun City in Gate Mall a couple of times, and my guess is that we’ll be back again.  Gate Mall, which officially opened not that long ago, is located in Egaila and is therefore nearby and easy to get to.  The mall itself is pretty impressive…  Much more so than I expect it to be.  It’s got a ton of shops, many of which are ones we visit regularly, and many of which are brand new to me.  As with most shopping malls in Kuwait, however, the downfall is the parking.  If I’m being honest, it’s an absolute disaster.  The mall seems to share one medium sized lot with 2 or 3 other surrounding malls, which means there’s not nearly enough spots and people park wherever they like, even if it means blocking in several cars in the process.  Ugh.

A Birthday Celebration at Play

8 / 29 / 149 / 5 / 14

Though we had an early doctor-themed birthday party with our families back in Canada a couple of weeks ago, I thought it would be nice to get a few of our Kuwait friends together for a real birthday celebration after a long summer apart.  Since we’d already done the big party thing, I knew I wanted to keep this one small, super low-key, and easy to put together, which preferably meant not hosting it in our apartment {oh the disaster that can be created by a clan of little ones in a short amount of time!}  While I did consider hosting it on the beach at the Hilton, it’s simply too hot to do that right now – even early in the morning.  So when the opportunity to have it at Play {a fun indoor play space in the city} came up, we jumped on it!  We love Play and visit regularly, so we already knew that we could expect a fun {and clean!} play space that all of our guests {aged 18 months to 6 years} would enjoy.

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…
