Doors of Kuwait *This one's for you JC*

I am fascinated by the old wooden doors we often see in Q8. Today while siteseeing (part of our vacation at home series), we took time with friend MR to see some interesting, seldome visited placed. Yes it was prayer time. David and MR were the only ones allowed--I had to wait outside (you know, the whole female thing and all)
The flag is the original Kuwaiti flag. This restaurant had wonderful food, great service and a delightful Al Koot (old kuwait) atmosphere.

This door was in a former family compound of a very well known Kuwaiti family. I love that the door has a brass place with a house number on it.


Outside an original Kuwait family compound home. This place was the size of a medium size hotel. Unfortunately there was fire damage and the house was vacant. Oh, if these portals could talk!
