Doha Life on a Mild Winter

As an expat living in Doha, Keith and I live a fairly low key lifestyle, we’ve been here for the last 8 years, and like anybody else it becomes a routine life; we are here to work, especially in summer.   But now it is ‘winter’ season in Doha, and it is a very mild winter,  as the temperature is really very nice, and more and more activities are held outdoors, simple activities just like fishing along the Doha Corniche early in the morning:

The authorities contribute by having an international speed boat event and claiming themselves as “The World Capital of Power boating”:

It is not normal to have so many big bikes in Doha

well, this is a weekend meet up before going cruising around town for the bikers:

Getting ready for a ride

And off we go for a morning ride around town if not around the country

As for us, I think we are happy to be a bystander and watch the action.
