Not-Your-Kuwait-Sunset

Blogger Someday (Red) sent me a not-your-Kuwait-sunset to post now that the Great Kuwait Sunset Challenge is officially over:

How incredibly beautiful is that? Does anyone recognize where it is?

  2. Yes! I use it as a landmark to find my favorite gold souk! My very first trip downtown, a very kind Kuwaiti woman took my hand and said “when you want to find (this merchant) if you are standing here in front of his shop, the Gulf bank is right across the street.”

    What a very very sad day in Kuwait.

    On the other hand, my hometown bank was Washington Mutual. 😦 I never thought I would see the day when it would go under. These are the times that try men’s souls – and women’s too.

    Thanks for the newsflash. This is not good news.

    Now since u asked if we recognize where it is i am guessing it must be somewhere in the region…hmmm…there is a cliff so i am going go with either Lebanon or Oman.

  7. Someday (Red) says it is a place called Langkawi. I am embarrassed to say that I don’t know where that is!
