The Daily Commute

Well we are getting used to this now, but every morning we head out onto Sports City Rd to play Qatari-roulette on Aziziyah Roundabout (sometimes with more success than others)… We then brave Salwa Rd and turn down Wholesale Market St to head down to Al Jazeera Academy. It is never dull and always an aspect of adventure to it. Sometimes it may be a 10-minute drive, and other times 30 minutes. There is a method to the driving here and it falls somewhere between defensive-aggressive.

I’ll have to work out how far it is as Salwa Rd is an 80 kph zone and Wholesale Market St is 100 kph, so distance is really based on the speed you can drive between roundabouts. So at the end of the day it really based on time rather than distance (which makes it all pretty relative).

Anyway I thought I would post this photo of our neighbourhood, but will try to do something a bit better some time in the not too distant future.
