review 1: Not content with retiring to a 'crazy mountain village' in Almeria; Victoria and Joe decide to brush off the Spanish cobwebs and move to even warmer climes to spend one last year teaching children in Bahrain. Swapping mules, chickens and kittens for camels, parrots and terrapins,Live vicariously, plunge yourself into 'Two Old Fools on a Camel', meet her larger than life characters and eavesdrop in on her faultless dialogue.Only Victoria Twead could pull something like this off - what's next? Koalas, Crocs and Kangaroos?
review 2: I enjoyed some of the events, but I do not find much humor in making fun of other people, so I found that part distasteful. Very little was written about the actual political events in Bahrain, thus I found that disappointing. A grea... moret deal was written about socializing with other staff members and playing barroom type pranks on one another. I didn't find those events interesting. My favorite parts involved the stories about the students, the classroom activities, and the challenges that arose in trying to teach in a very different culture. I admire the author and her husband for their brave and adventuresome spirit, but I would not go out of my way to recommend this book to others. less
