Swine Flu Check
Note the nice brown sky. It is dusty here now.
On arrival in Kuwait you are given a card on the plane that you must take to a clinic within 72 hours to get checked if you have any symptoms. I went there with our Mandoup and they asked if I feel anything and I said no. They took the form and that was that. That was what I had to do as I arrived on Saturday. Sometimes they take the card at the airport while stamping your passport at the immigration desk and you don’t need to go to a clinic as happened to someone I know today.
If you are wondering where the clinic is click here to see it on a Google map.

This was taken with a panorama of three images from the point and shoot camera and a bit of Photoshopping to add punch and fill in some gaps.
