Oasis in the Desert






We found this place today. Such a lovely surprise. Well, it wasn't actually new to us. It is very near our house and we used to visit there when we were living here 4 years ago. But Doha has improved a lot and this place was greener and nicer than we remembered. And the metal play equipment has been replaced with much more practical heat friendly materials and even had shade cloths. The weather has finally cooled down enough that we can visit in the mornings. And just so we can imagine we have been transported somewhere far, far away the speakers play birds tweeting relentlessly to compensate for the complete lack of wildlife. We were particulary delighted to find this secret garden. I plan to take the girls back in the morning for a breakfast picnic.
