Sunkist
A classic, probably the best orange drink ever created.

Frutti
Tasted terrible! I also had what looked like red hair in my drink although I am guessing its supposed to be orange pulp.

Fresh
Tasted better than Frutti but just not good enough to beat Sunkist.

Now on a side note if you look at the orange illustration on the Frutti cup you will notice it resembles the orange on the Sunkist cup. If you also look at the shape of the Fresh cup you will notice it is the same shape as the Sunkist cup. As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I was hoping to rest this weekend but it looks like thats not going to happen since I have a work related trip I need to take. Thursday I leave Kuwait around 1PM and get to Beirut at around 3. I spend the night there and next morning at 9AM I leave to London. I get to London at 1PM then the following day at 10PM I catch a flight to Bahrain where I catch another flight back to Kuwait. Its going to be really hectic but spending a day and a half in London is going to be worth it. Like last weekend I will be blogging directly from my phone which means I will be posting a lot of pictures. It should be a lot of fun.

Someone posted the following in the forum:

Yesterday on my visit to the aquarium of Kuwait Scientific Center, I noticed that the Zubaidi (Pomfret) had eye infections.

Most of them in the tank had a whitish curtain over their eyes and the tips of their mouths were injured (as a result of not being able to see properly, I am assuming they kept hitting their faces on the tank).

I tried to look around for a person to report this to, but none was around. If anybody knows anyone in the scientific center, could you please tell them about this ??

I hope someone from Scientific Center is reading this. Thanks. [Link]

I am not a big fan of Jag’s but the new XF is HOT! [Pictures]

It takes 8.5 minutes for the light from the sun to reach the earth. I just found that out, I was expecting it to take much longer. [Source]

Oh and I am currently watching a movie called Sunshine.

Just really busy catching up.

I left the lounge. No free internet, no AC, it was over crowded and barely any seating. Found this 428 snack here, it might pass as 248. (Posted from my Nokia e61i)

I am at the airport now waiting for my Gulf Air flight back to Bahrain then Kuwait. The airport here sucks and the business lounge is a joke. I can’t wait to get to the Bahrain airport… (Posted from my Nokia e61i)

Today we managed to do so much. Started the morning with Euro Disney and ended the afternoon shopping. Val d’europe turned out to be disappointing, 90 percent of the shops were franchises available in Kuwait. So we didn’t spend too long there before getting back to our hotel. After freshening up we left again for more shopping this time at a department store called LaFayette which is amazing. Anyway now I am back working and it looks like todays meeting is going to be really long. I love the design of this studio, which wish we had this style in Kuwait. (Posted from my Nokia e61i)

We left Euro Disney after around 2 hours of walking around and getting on a few rides. We are now at Val d’europe where we will have lunch and do some shopping. We are now coming back to Kuwait tomorrow, a day ahead of schedule. Thank you Izgerty for pointing out Val d’europe, so far it looks like a really nice area. (Posted from my Nokia e61i)

Kinda easy to figure out. (Posted from my Nokia e61i)

Since we have some free time today we decided to go somewhere special, we are now on our way to that place. Once we get there will take another picture and post it. (Posted from my Nokia e61i)

All those people are waiting in line to get up the Eiffel Tower. Its not even peak tourist season and it was slightly raining so imagine how long the line would be mid summer on a nice day. [YouTube]
