Water Scarce

Now back to our hotel room in Kuwait the Euphrates Friends decide to look back on the best and the worst of our treck through the Middle East. We all decided the best was when Zoey hallucinated due to lack of water and began to lick the desert floor because she thought that it was a lake. It was also one of the worst moments because water was so scarce. Did you know that the Middle East contains 5% of the worlds people and only contains 0.9% of the worlds water. This makes water one of thier most prescious, and fought over rescourse. It can only support around 2/3 of the Middle Eastern people. Wars can even break out over water! Oh well, atleast we made it, and I think we all agree that we learned a lot. Thanks for visiting our site!
