One of the most popular things to do in Qatar is to head out into the desert. In fact, many Qataris have temporary camp sites set up in the desert during the winter months where they spend their weekends, similar to Canadians who have a summer cottage.
Last week Tim and the boys experienced a desert safari. This is a popular and unusual attraction that provides spectacular landscape views. There are only two countries in the world where the sand dunes meet the ocean: Qatar and Namibia. .
A desert safari is an exciting opportunity for "dune bashing". Driving down giant sand dunes (50 - 70 feet high) provides a thrill you will never forget. Similar to a roller coaster, expert drivers guide the Land Cruiser up steep dunes and then drop on the other side
The boys had a lot of fun! Once again, Lisa was very happy to miss this excitement.
