We had heard it many times prior to moving -- "Pack some warm clothes. Kuwait gets cold in the winter." Right (said sarcastically). A country that hovers around 40 for 8 months of the year cannot possibly get cold. Well let's just say that we have been eating our fair share of humble pie as of late. IT.IS.FREEZING!!
This desert oasis that we call home has been in a bit of a cold streak and this past week has dipped down to 0 on a few occasions (that's 32 degrees Celsius for you Americans). We have been scrambling to put together warm outfits and set up a heating system in an apartment that has no central heat. Let's just say we have been very creative with layering and forced air fans. As we shiver our way through the day we dream of our winter clothes in storage in Washington and pray for the 40 degrees to return soon.
