What do you do in the weekends?

By suzan

We run out of ideas... we dont know what to do in the weekends anymore.

We were thinking of a gateway, maybe staying at a hotel with our son for 2 days soon..

So tell us, as a family, what do you do in the weekends??????????????

novi, We prefer to keep our kids with their grandparents... Many expats I know here have friends they can trust with their child(ren) for a weekend.

theoritically yes bleu, but not every couple in Doha / Qatar are lucky or wealthy enough to be able to hire domestic helper or nanny ...

novita, as a family, a man and a woman need some time alone. A time-out. To get our of the repetitive days of family life...

Blue said : Would be much nicer without the son...

Qatar is wellknown as a good place to raise a family, how could you saying that ??? ;)

At some point we used to go to inland sea, zekreet, dukhan etc with a group of friend.

Then there was a spell that we go out alot with QLSG people to the similar place.

And then after that we just got sick of going to those places again and again... we ended up doing cinema - carrefour and sitting in starbucks nearly every week.

Alot of weekend also spent by going to people's houses for house party.

Finally my son and I escaped Doha for good last august ... And we couldnt be more happier.
