Kuwait has been very, very good to me. I've had an absolutely amazing time...and have 15000 words of notes to transform into a "short" book about the Kuwait Dive Team! (We'll see if I manage to keep the word count low!)
The last few days, I have:
Explored the ruins of a partially sunken ship.
Raised the Kuwaiti flag on a degrading oil island to draw attention to the need to maintain it to avoid environmental harm.
Made a new friend. (Sadly, I don't think British Customs will let me bring the camel home. My flatmate probably wouldn't be thrilled either.)
Driven a boat for the first time.
Met and learned from many adorable Kuwaiti children. One of them sang "Do, a Deer" from "The Sound of Music" with me!
Ate at Taco Bell. (There isn't a Taco Bell in London. It was silly, but exciting.)
Saw the plans for a freshwater lake for migratory birds in an expanded nature reserve.
And now...it's time to go home. :(
Kuwait, I will miss you! Thank you for an AMAZING five days!!
