I saw on the paper that Ahmedi will organize a festive Carnival and a musical parade to celebrate Kuwait National Day near Al Koot Mall next Thursday in addition to bicycles and running tournaments on the 9th of March. I loved how Ahmedi was decorated with colorful lights and I think the carnival will be fun to attend.

Where: Al Daboos street, Al Koot Mall

When: 7th March at 3:30pm

I was heading toward Kuwait City and saw they fixed billboards near traffic lights showing February National Day celebrations for each governorate of Kuwait. The one I saw was for Assimah governrate. It included festivals, musical fiestas, sports tournaments, fireworks and entertainment shows so I made you a brief list.

If you spot the activities for the other governorates please send us so we could share with you all.

Kuwait can get boring if you don’t know about the ongoing/upcoming events, many blog visitors keep asking us about new interesting events and I admit its kinda hard to find out about events in Kuwait, a group of Kuwaiti designers created a website and an Andoid app named, Qlendar, that helps you know about upcoming events.

I checked the website, the design needs improvements also the app is lacking some features but the concept idea is great.

We were given a chance to test-drive the new Mercedes-Benz C350 Coupe 2012 during the weekend.

Honestly, I saw the C350 ads and I so wanted to be behind the wheel and see how it feels on the road.

We liked the exterior look and the AMG body cut added even more sexiness and aggressiveness. Also inside it was spacious, comfortable, and easy to handle.

 It has many cool features such as Lane Departure alert, Blind spot detector, all LED lights, 7G Tronic transmission, F1 and cruise control, adaptive front lights,navigation system, rear camera, USB, DVD video, Bluetooth, AUX for iPhone and iPad.

Our friends Kuwait Kites Team had sent us cool shots and a footage for flying the biggest kites in Kuwait (and in the world) at Messila beach.

I used to think flying kites is simple but it turned out very challenging. All the kites are designed and made in Kuwait and the biggest costs about 3,500 K.D.

I learned that best time to fly kites in Kuwait is during cool weather when wind speed is between 15 KM/Hr to 25 KM/Hr.

Thanks to Kuwait Kites Team for their amazing efforts, we are all proud of you!

Last night we were given a chance to fight with the Sumo in an impossible mission to beat him, the dude weighs 200+ KG’s and probably eats dozen chicken for light snack.

Some of our friend bloggers were brave enough to try to take him down yet to no avail, I guess Sumo’s strength lies within his heavy mass and stability.

As received:

“Ladies and Gentlemen, would you want to bring back some memories ? How about having this Eid with a new touch, a twisted touch with horror, thrill and fun factors all mixed up ? What if we told you it’s all in The Haunted Castle in Al-Sha`ab Park ? The Haunted Castle is back ! And this time, it’s different than it was ! Don’t miss the thrill and be GADHA !”

Sounds like a good activity for family on Eid, I wish we have more Eid activities in Kuwait.
