COUPLE VLOGS AT FAILAKA ISLAND KUWAIT PART 2 رحلة إلى جزيرة فيلكا الجزء الثاني
2023-01-27 · YouTube · Salah and Chantal · 14 min
Chantal and companions visit Failaka Island, Kuwait. After arriving and picking up a map at reception they stop at a mini-market, eat lunch at an on-site restaurant (Chantal has lentil soup with lemon and fried pita chips; drinks include Mountain Dew and a lemon-mint drink), then tour the Sheikh Abdullah Salem Palace museum—viewing cannons, old doors, rooms, an old kitchen, pearl-diving models and tools, weapons, wells, and depopulated homes—before heading toward the zoo and lake. The video mixes on-camera narration with sections presented as voiceover or music-over slides for pacing.
