KOC Spring Camp, Q8

Kuwait celebrated its National Day with lot of zeal and ardor yesterday. We decided to go to KOC Spring Camp and check out the celebration. It’s near Khiren and next to Al Zour Power plant. Going by the 40 Highway, one has to take the left turn for Road No270. It is another 12kms from this point. KOC Spring Camp sign board lead you to the destination.The camp is only for KOC employees, but on the National and Liberation Day it’s open to others. As my husband is in KOC, we visit the camp every year. A nice place to go with your family and friends. After your entry, they give you a tent where you can keep your belongings and go out or take rest. There are tents, play area for children, go carting zone, restaurants and best part it’s near the sea. We haven’t seen so much of Kuwaiti's as we had seen yesterday. All wearing dresses, caps, badges and coloring their faces with colors of their national flag. They decorated their cars with their national flag and the young ones were throwing each other foam. It was a festive occasion. Many young boys were flying kites; the elder Kuwaitis enjoying shisha, coffee and the younger ones were in the play area with their nanny’s. A magic show was also organized.
