Last week we went with new friends to the Al Kout Festival, a celebration of Kuwait traditional food, dance and crafts. It was very interesting. We weren't the only ones who attended as it was also visited by the American Ambassador to Kuwait, Debra Jones (she's the obvious American in a sea of dishtashas in photo #3) and Sheikh Sabah Al-Khalid Al-Hamad Al-Sabah, the Minister of Information. That's the tall dude talking to moi' in the first picture. I was having my hand "hennaed" and at the moment this picture was taken, he was telling me (in perfect English) that I would become wealthy. My response ("all right") made him smile.
