Far From the Maddening Crowd

Right after Fu6oor my friend past by to ask if I felt like going out. The thought of all that traffic gave me a headache so we came up with the idea of heading South. We drove down highway 40 as the Americans would call it and ended up at Al-Kot Mall in Fahaheel. I honestly felt like I'd travelled out of Kuwait. It was amazing. We sat infront of the singing water fountains, the weather was brilliant and the sound of music was the perfect addition to an Arabian night. As I watched the fountains dance away, I could see the reflection of the moon on the water and what a lovely sight that was. Picture perfect, right out of a postcard.

The amazing thing was everybody was so civil. There were no loud kids you'd normaly see walking around Marina Mall. Just everyone going about their business and nobody hassled us or stared at us or anything. It was an enlightening experience that I highly recommend for anyone wanting to get away from it all. Oh and in case you needed to shop for Eid, they had some nice shops too without the crazy crowd.

And they say you have to get on a flight for a change of scene...hey...it took 25 minutes and I came back refreshed...much cheaper...wouldn't you say?
