Today was our first go at ATVing in the desert. Well...we were sort of in the desert, just before the highway comes to a dead end and the true sand dunes emerge. Since Sergy's not driven anything other than an "old-fashioned antique car" amusement park ride or a go-cart, I felt it was prudent to not head up into the sand dunes. O.k., I'm also not the best driver around...Didn't want any causalities on our first try. It was great fun though.
One of many, many traditional Qatari desert homes. Families live in the city, but usually have a tent or series of tents pitched somewhere in the desert and sleep there on weekends until the weather becomes too hot.
If you look closely, you will see trash lying on the ground. Unfortunately the idea of placing things in a proper trash can has not exactly taken hold over here. :(
Another one of many....a petroleum plant. There are actually no photography signs all around the petrol plants, but I'm not exactly trying to copy their engineering or anything. :)
