ewwww

One of my geocaching challenges (another little fun project for geocachers---learn the lingo people because I'm loving this new hobby!) was to take a picture of the local species. Well here is a nice little group I found under a rock while geocaching yesterday by the towers....nice aren't they.

Kuwait Towers

Can't remember if I explained what Geocaching is in the past. Its basically a hightech treasure hunt for people of all ages. I search on geocaching.com to find coordinates for these little caches, put them in my phone or GPS and then go searching for them. Its a nice way to tour a new place since the locals who place them usually do so in a spot they like. So today we took the car and headed out. I found a few! Kuwait only has 17 caches that are not on a military base, so it will be pretty easy for me to get them all while here. I will not bother showing you all the caches I got today but one of them took us to the Kuwait towers so here is a picture of that :) We didn't go in today since we were just driving around getting a feel for the area, but we plan to!

Here fishy

The Hilton Resort we are staying at is AMAZING! Hands down the nicest place we have lived since being on the road. Its so kid friendly. One of london's favorite features is the huge fish tank near the restaurant we get breakfast at.

Our flight



Now that your back up to snuff with us lets at least start this trip off from the begining. There is a new policy at UOP that family doesn't get to travel with the employee in business class (at least they will not pay for it). As much as this does suck I can't complain TO much since they are still paying for us to get there. However lucky for us Troy make 1k status last year and so he gets 6 upgrades + a year. So for Jordan's first international flight (she was already on a plane for a quick tulsa, OK trip) we got all three of us upgraded to business. Poor troy missed out on having a nice peaceful trip alone up front. London got to try out his first pair of headphones for a special treat of watching tv....he watched Cars2 and LOVED it!

Whats up?

Well its been over a year since I posted last. A few things have changed.... we are now in Kuwait. We just got here yesterday. In august we had a baby girl we named Jordan Capri S. and is just as great of a little traveler as London. I can't say I will get a photo up daily because lets face it, 2 kids makes my day way more busy. However I know have a fancy iPhone so it should be easier than having to upload my photos from my camera disk via card reader to my computer. So for the most important thing that was missed.... here is miss Jordan Capri S. born on 8/10/11 wt 7 lbs 6oz and 20 in long. We are in love <3 As you can see she sleeps a ton. That last photo is the more recent one and she is a big smiley girl who loves to stick her tongue out at me.
