PHOTOS BELOW TAKEN FROM  THE KATARA CULTURAL VILLAGE

I WAS  IMPRESSED. STILL I'M NOT SURE HOW WOULD I DESCRIBE IT

MESAIEED SAND DUNES

My first visit in MESAIEED SAND DUNES was really something to remember.overcoming the ups and downs of the breathtaking land formation were somewhat an accomplishment for me.

The sand dunes is scenic in the sense that it is very unusual.  I cant believe .  now I was here  already in the wildest dessert of Middle East.. woohoooo

Lured by this spectacle, I seized the moment. While the remaining hues were still there, I playfully posed in front of my friend  camera hoping to own an epic sunset photograph of myself romancing the most beautiful sunset in Qatar . And it never failed me.

It was so enthralling we were all at loss of words. Glorious! Glorious! Glorious! The only adjective I kept on murmuring as I glued my eyes on a glorious sunset that was laid before me. I was like staring at a stairway to heaven. To be honest, I was carried away. I wept for no reason. It was just so glorious.

The view from high up was intimidating but it was not as scary as it looked.

My only regret was not being able to rent an ATV. Looks like a ton of fun!

Contended by what we saw and experienced, we left Mesaieed  so delighted. I knew it was the pleasing view of the Sand Dunes of Mesaieed and the glorious Sunset of Qatar  that just made our  day complete.

ROAD TRIP (EXPLORING THE OTHER SIDE OF QATAR)

I LOVE ROAD TRIPS. I BELIEVE EVERYONE WHO EXPERIENCES THEM LOVE THEM WHY? BECAUSE THEY EXPAND OUR PERSPECTIVE AND THATS FEEL MAGICAL.THEY REVEAL TO US SO MANY NEW AND WONDERFUL THINGS ABOUT OUR SELVES AND THIS EXCITING WORLD THAT WE LIVE IN. WE ABANDON OUR DAILY ROUTINE FOR FRESH NEW EXISTENCE. DRIVING FROM HERE TO THERE IS ONE THING, BUT A ROAD TRIP IS SOMETHING MORE.........

IT SERVES A DEEPER PURPOSE.
