Waiting in Kuwait

So the second full day here in Kuwait is coming to an end. Yesterday, only 3 of my 4 bags showed up at the airport. I'm hoping the last one shows up tonight. Can't do much else until I have all of my stuff.

My days here are spent sleeping (the blasting air conditioning makes the tent plenty cold), eating (food is good, not spectacular), checking the Internet (I have to sign up, wait maybe 20 minutes, then have a 20 minute limit), watching movies (you can check out a number of DVDs) and that's about it. It's extremely boring and I'm ready to move on already.

Today there was plenty of blowing sand. Visibility was less than a mile and you got to taste some sand anytime you went out side. Naturally most folks stayed in their sleeping tents or one of the large MWR (Morale, Welfare and Recreation) tents. I guess that's it for now.

  1. Scott, in its own way, it is very interesting to read about the dullness and the waiting. Take care!
