Saturday Morning at TRH

I am back home now for a couple of weeks. Hot, and the grass needed mowing, here!

Thursday Night in Kuwait Dasman Lounge

I think this is the 5th time I've been in this lounge in Kuwait, waiting on a flight, this year! I feel like I am a regular! Brands of beer and wine are still the same -- None!

About 3 hours until boarding time.

Thursday Afternoon in Doha

I'm leaving windy, hot Doha Qatar, headed to hot, windy Kuwait City. But there, in KC, I wont pass thru security, so wont get out into the heat. (Unless, like last trip, my midnight flight gets cancelled and I get to spend an extra day enroute home.)

With any luck I'll be in the Dulles airport around 7am Friday morning

Doha Weather


Well, while I have been here, the weather in Qatar has been nothing but consistent, and this graphic describes it all:

I'll finish my work here tomorrow, then start Thursday evening the long trip home, to get there Friday morning.

Thursday Night in Doha

I made it to Doha, Qatar -- It's hot and dusty and windy here, too. Imagine that!

Thursday Morning in Kuwait City

I'm leaving Kuwaite later to day to go to Qatar. Last night I saw the biggest, nicest mall I have ever seen. The Avenues Mall is hugh, high-ceilings, very open spaces - like being outdoors, except with A/C -- lots of A/C. And that's just parts 1 & 2 - when they open part 3 it will be even bigger!

I'll go to Doha later today, and fly back thru Kuwait next week this time on way back home.

Wednesday Afternoon in Kuwait City


Ugggg - what a brown sky there's been here, and hot temperatures! In January when I was here the sky was blue and beautiful. Now, it's just the opposite! People say it wont get any better until September!

Monday Morning in Kuwait City

I made it to Kuwait, again. Third time for that 11 hour flight this year, so far. No empty seats on the plane this time.

It was 108 degrees at 6pm when we arrived.
