pic update

We spent the weekend at my aunts Shaleigh (beach house). Her families shaleigh is one of those places that I can still remember visiting from when I was a little kid. I probably remember it because it was one of the more comfortable places we would visit when living here. Luckily for me it still is one of my favorite places in Kuwait.
Lujain and I inventing a new style. Granted it is a bit of a reference to slick rick. ok honestly my sunglasses broke and it was fun for like 15 mins. I still think it is dope. This is on our way back from the shaleigh (pictures loaded backwards..oops.)


Lujain 'rockin out'


Sunset in well...actually i don't know where this is; Kaefan maybe? This is the view from the roof of Mama'ouda's house. This is the neighborhood across the highway from Adailiyah.


a not so great picture of the beach from my Aunt's shaleigh, including some of her garden.

Me gettin fancy with the camera that Lauren got me. One of the more stunning plants that resides in my Aunt's garden


This is the back of the shaleigh. It is split between two families. The right is my aunt's, the left is owned by a family friend.


View of the beach. Meshari and I sat here on one of our first days in Kuwait about 3 years ago. We were really jet-lagged and could not sleep so we stayed up and watched the sunrise right out of the ocean.

View of the front. The left side is my aunt's.

Lujain and I...

Mama'ouda one of my favorite Kuwaitis, originally from Iraq . Lujain took this photo.


Lujain and Baba reading the paper together.

My uncle Mithqal and my cousin Mai. Luain took this picture as well. it is my favorite one in this post. My uncle is from Palestine and is an amazing card player. I gave up because the game they were playing was over my head and I wasnt too fond of it. Its kind of like a mix between spades and hearts. Anyways I sat to the side and fiddled with a nutcracker enjoying time with the family.
