Between "Iraq" and a Hard Place




Sorry for the awful pun, but I couldn't resist! These pictures show the type of scenery we see in Kuwait. Either ocean or desert and there's not much inbetween.

We got a new Canon Rebel Camera for Christmas. We bought it in Germany for a fairly good price. We were the smart consumers, purchasing the camera for a fraction of what we would pay here in Kuwait (where electronics are very expensice). We were the embarrassed consumers when we realized that the instruction booklets were printed in German, French, Italian and Dutch--no English. We were slightly frustrated consumers until we realized that we could download English instructions off the internet.
