A blog about what daily life was really like in the Middle East and the daily ramblings of an ex-pat mum. That's how I started the blog. We are now home, so I'm just going to continue with life here. I am a deeply committed Christian. I love to teach about and share my faith so you'll see some of that on the blog as well. Got a comment? Please feel to comment at the end of a post. May our Creator's peace be upon you.

Stranger in a strange land

I know I'm living in a 'strange' place. I have bag here in the hallway of clothes etc...that don't fit our whatever anymore. We're going to donate the clothes (mostly the munchkins' clothes) to be sold for charity through a little local shop kind of place. Well, driving home morning errands today, I drove past a donation box for just such items. Sitting outside the box was an item much to big to put in the box door. It was a piece of Louis Vuitton luggage. Here's a link to their website: http://www.louisvuitton.com/en/flash/index.jsp?direct1=home_entry_gb0
My guess, that to buy the bag new, would have been between $600-$800 U.S. Was it real or a knockoff bag? I don't know. Now, you may be asking yourself, "Why didn't this goofy blogger pick it up?" I didn't because #1, that was not left there for me. #2, I love good bags, but I'd feel weird carrying something donated for someone with less than I.

Yes, there are many days that this place even though I've been here for 3 years now still feels a touch strange.

Peace.
