But I sure find the winters here in Qatar to be unbearably cold!Come winter and I'll be in my most moody inactive mode. In fact I prefer the time after winter but before mid summer like say Feb/March. See back in Sri Lanka even the hillside towns don't get as chilly as it does here. Mind you back there I was a complete "winter person" loving the cold weather. But here? I'd be shivering and mumbling all throughout the day "I won't whine in the summer"!!
