We celebrated new year on the beach, camping at Fuwairit (northern Qatar) with four other families. The weather was perfect, the kids had a great time, and the grown ups had a fun evening sitting around the fire to ring in the new year.
The camp site. Its hard to find a place where there is no concern about being run over by a land cruiser in the middle of the night so we formed a protective ring of cars around the camp (resulting in damage to Julian’s Honda Accord which, not surprisingly, should not be driven on soft sand!).
Kids having fun with their sand castle on the beach.
Family snap on the beach on new years eve.
Susie shows of her sand castle – very impressive.
The locals getting around on a bit less horsepower than normal.
Susie and friends enjoy the beach.
Fun cooking sausages and playing with the torch.
Toasting marshmallows for a special treat.
New year, so time for the sparklers.
Grown ups enjoying the camp fire. Hmm, there are a lot of empty bottles…
Morning on the beach, the kids have marshmallows again!
And the grown ups enjoy a bacon fry up (the real stuff!).
Happy New Year to you all. Wishing you all the best for 2011.
