After weeks of raiding the malls  here in Qatar, we decided to have a feel of sun and sand. 

It was about an hour drive at 100 kilometers per hour from our place (speeding up can be very costly as they have cameras installed strategically to catch you). We troop down with Hubby's team. The drive is all worth it since we don't get to see enormous sand in PH. Yes, mountains of sand and just sand everywhere. 

We paid QR120 for an hour use of the quad bike, we got two for me and Hermione and hubby. It can be tiring especially if you're riding with a demanding little girl who wants to go to the mountains of sand which I really don't agree. Some "dune bashers" are even using their 4x4s climbing up the mountain sand...I'm a bit scared just by merely looking at them. Talking about "flashsand" (read: flashflood but in this case sand). And some even have their own quad bike - its a sport!

There are quad bikes also for children. But I wouldn't imagine Hermione riding one of those, well, not until she's old enough to be scared of the "mountains"
