Surveillance cameras?
Ignoring their spelling mistake but what exactly do they mean by surveillance cameras? Are these the regular speed cameras or have they installed something new?
Thanks Karim
It’s a simple program, actually it sounds more like a promo since the way it works is for every 10 tickets you get one free. For more details click [Here]
According to a job post on Emirates 24/7, International Service Check are looking for mystery shoppers in Kuwait. I know the last time I posted about mystery shoppers there was a lot of interest so this is a way for you to become one yourself. For more information click [Here]

Fiat 500 – Gucci Edition
A reader sent me the picture above of the Gucci Edition Fiat 500. I actually saw it last week at Salhiya and although I’m a fan of the Fiat 500, I didn’t think the Gucci edition was that cool. Personally I think the Diesel edition looks much better. No idea how much the Gucci edition costs but I’m guessing a bundle.

The Great Flood of 97
I just saw this video on iLSuL6ana’s blog of the flood that happened in Kuwait back in 1997. Whenever I tell new comers about it they keep thinking I’m exaggerating. It really was that bad. [YouTube]

Not much progress
Looks like Potbelly, Pinkberry and Starbucks inside the Duty Free at the Kuwait Airport isn’t opening anytime soon.
Zahed Sultan just released his 3rd music video called “Walkin Away” from his “Hi Fear, Lo Love” album. You can watch it above or on [YouTube]
I wasn’t planning on shooting a video, it just came to me while playing on the track so I didn’t have a tripod or a second hand to help me out. It’s not a great video but it still should give you a rough idea of what it’s like to race an RC car around the track. For some odd reason my edit turned out to be just 35 seconds so I repeated the lap twice in the video (it actually takes over a minute to race around the track without mistakes). If this track doesn’t convince you to get a race buggy then I’m not sure what would.

Al Hamra Tower Screen
The large screen outside Al Hamra Tower was on as I passed by probably being tested out. Last week I noticed the tower lights were being tested out and the whole building was blinking and changing colors. Is it normal that every tower popping up in Kuwait now has it’s own light show taking place at night?
Earlier today I passed by the newly revamped Kuwait Science Club RC track near 360 Mall. I was the only one there so I managed to take the picture above of the track completely empty. It’s really huge and pretty difficult to race around at least for a newbie like me. There are some very cool jumps that had my car flying off the ground except the jumps usually ended with a sharp right turn so my car would end up flying off the course. Still lots of fun and I didn’t damage anything. I shot a video which I’ll try to post later tonight but for now you can check out a large panorama of the track by visiting this [Link]

Tatami for Lunch
I finally managed to pass by Tatami Japanese restaurant for lunch today. Everything I had was really good and the owner of the place (who is also the chef) was there and she was very friendly and helpful when choosing the dishes. My only issue with the place is that the sushi rolls are extremely tiny. Like the tiniest rolls I’ve ever seen. But other than that it’s a great place and worth trying out. Here is the link to their website [Link]
