Sweating on Purpose

Kuwait is a very hot country. When we landed we actually hit the tail end of the "hot season" which entails daily temperatures of around 115 degrees. The nice thing is that for the most part the heat is dry but that does not mean that we don't sweat. Walk to school...sweat. Walk to lunch...sweat. Hang pictures on a bullitien board...sweat. Since living in Vietnam we have adapated the mantra of "embrace the sweat" because you have to realize that no matter what you do you are you to sweat and probably stink a little.

Yesterday was still hot and we still did sweat, but for the first time since we got here we actually sweated on purpose. After a week of inactivity we bit the bullet and joined a health club here in Kuwait. Gym's are limited here in Kuwait so we actually got more of a gym than we have ever had before. We now belong to a the Kuwaiti equvialant of a country club. Like we said, options are limited. It was good to move again and actually sweat on purpose for a change. Hey, now we have to also live up to our goal of learning how to play tennis.
