Lucky Pearl Finder in Kuwait
by Marge Anderson
Between 1978 and 1982 we lived in Kuwait and our son in law was a professional diver and introduced us to finding natural pearls in the waters off Kuwait. Oddly enough if you wait for the tide to go out, and it REALLY goes out, you can find oysters lying in the sand and small tide pools. We got "pearl fever" and every chance we got we would go to the water and look for oysters. We have a very nice collection of natural pearls and I also bought a pearl necklace at the local jewelers which our daughter wore on her wedding day. We treasure the time we spent with the Arabs, whom we love and found to be the most honest people we have ever met. I don't know how to do the digital camera thing so I cannot send any photos but finding a pearl is breathtaking and truly unforgettable. Truly a memory I will always treasure.
