Actually, Bahrain is a total blast. The biggest danger here is alcohol poisoning. Being an expat here is some of the most fun my wife and I have ever had. And the people are great. I do wish I had time to learn Arabic, but I've got a bit under my belt.
Thanks,

I've visited several countries in the area (Kuwait & UAE mainly) and found them interesting, too. The Souks (open markets) were pretty cool, but if you look like a tourist you start out at a barganing disadvantage because they (correctly) think you have lots more money than the average customer.
