We Fancy, Huh?!?

Last night the owner of our school treated all of the school staff to a welcome dinner.  The dinner was held at a local country club called the Sahara Club.  We were told to dress nice as it was a swanky place.  As we rode our buses into the desert, we couldn't help but wonder what kind of club we would find. 

Enter heaven in Kuwait.  Beautiful does not seem sufficient enough of a word to describe the setting.  There, among the sand, was a stunning golf course with lush, green, REAL grass.  The setting was amazing and for one second, you forgot you were in the middle east.  (Then, you thought about the cost that it must take to keep that grass o-so-very green and you quickly remembered, "Oh yeah!  We are in the middle east!)  Oh yeah, the dinner was spectacular, as well.  Shrimp, lamb, and caviar, anyone?

All dressed up and on the bus.
A group of friends all eagerly awaiting the dinner to come.

We had our hair done, nails done, everything did.  We fancy, huh!?!
