Please tell me your comparing the roads of that specific area and not making a general statement about all the roads and all of Kuwait.

Also, school got cancelled! To a 7th grader at the time, that was the best news ever!

So I call up my cousin who lives in Rumaithiya and hear what’s clearly a jet-ski, in the background. Apparently, her neighbor was out in his front yard (which was flooded from the rain) riding his jet-ski, all happy as you please lol

Somehow, for the entire country to still flood… 21 years later, seems less cute.

Me and my brother left qurtoba when the rain stopped, going to kanada dry to puck my aunt whose car was drowned.
Streets qere flooded.
I had to walk for 150meter with water level upto my chest.
My aunt was stuck in one shop, along with many others.
I advised to wait in the shop.
She and the house made came with me to the car. With water levels not dropping, i was dragging both ladies but we made it to the car.
On the way to her home, we got stuck in ghasaly bridge and stayed for i cant remember how long.

Thanks to the 1995 red grand cherokee with ninja turtle seats
