Beach Fun!
On July 1 the beaches opened back up for visitors in Doha! We didn't go straight away because we were concerned about crowds and sure enough we heard stories of packed cars along some of the popular spots. As the allure of finally getting out settled some we have ventured out to the beach and on the water with friends.
We've usually gone super early in the morning to avoid the crowds - and when I say early, we are leaving the house between 4:30 - 5:30 am to arrive at the beach by 5:30 - 6:30 am and we have never been the first there! The sun is up here between 4:00 - 4:30 am so we've never quite made the sunrise, but it's been gorgeous still!
We also took the kids tubing for the first time and they loved it!
One morning we headed out the cloud cover was absolutely stunning!! We arrived so early the tide hadn't come in all the way and we were able to walk out pretty far into the water and slowly move backwards as the water began to rise. It was a refreshing and relaxing time and just what our family needed after a bit of chaos at home!
The Heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork.
Psalm 19:1 (ESV)
