Jackson- Doha
| Playing ball with Dad in our new apartment |
The people here are very nice because they always
say hello. They are different because they wear different clothes. Some women
wear black things over their bodies and heads and some men do the same but with
white clothes. The people here speak differently.
The school that we are going to is an International
school, which means it has lots of children from different countries most
people here have black skin, I think that’s because it’s so hot and they get
sun tanned! The heat is boiling hot it is 40% humidity. It’s so hot that most
people don’t go outside until 4pm in the evening! Also if you like playing
sports like cricket or football you would have to play in a covered stadium
it’s is so hot!

It is lucky our Apartment has 2 swimming pools but
I was disappointed with the pool because it was warm not cold, at about midday
if you went to the beach and jumped on the sand you would get burnt feet!
The houses are light coloured so they don’t get
hot. All the houses are similar in groups maybe so it doesn’t take too long to
build them. Daddy doesn’t like the hot heat because he’s so used to being in a
warmish coldish country next to Antarctica. My Dads glasses fog up with
humidity and the moisture in the air. This is annoying, because Dad can’t
see. It’s easy for me because I can just take off my sunglasses. Dad can’t
because his are prescription glasses. There are lots of birds at our Apartment
because they want to rest under the shades by the swimming pool.
I like Doha.

It is true about the glasses. When I get out of a taxi, or a mall, my glasses fog up- usually that happens when I go inside!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome blog and a fantastic idea. Well written Jackson. I was wandering how dad was handling the heat! We're going to have 30 degrees today so it's starting to warm up here :-) xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Jackson! It's Room 11 here. We have just created a Blogspot account so we can comment on your awesome blog posts!
ReplyDeleteThis was a great post, you talked about lots of things that we did not know about Doha. We didn't know that you could get burnt feet on the beach! We also think it's strange that it's too hot to go outside until 4PM. We hope you are enjoying yourself over there.
We have a new year 4 boy in our class. His name is Tyla. He came to us from Avonhead School. His old school has blogs too. He showed us what you can do on them. It was really cool.
We miss you lots and you have a lot of comments and question on Kidblog and Edmodo. We hope you are able to log in soon to reply to us!
Actually you have to stay inside until 7PM!!!!!!!
DeleteWell done Jackson - you sure are teaching us lots about the places you're visiting. How cool to have so much room to play inside. We cracked up when you said about dad's glasses fogging up - funny! Right now a warm pool sounds great to me, wish we had one at our place :o)
