An Afternoon at the Park

The weather is starting to cool down in Bahrain as the winter approaches. Winter in Bahrain feels like Springtime in the states. It is so lovely! We decided to get out and enjoy the welcomed cooler temps by going to a park that recently opened on the island of Muharraq. We decided to take a picnic and stopped at a new cafe by our home. By the time we got to the park, our food was cold (traffic) and then we saw an EZ's fast food restaurant at the park. Have you ever seen a McDonald's or Burger King at a park? That was new for us. Oh well. Besides seeing a fast food restaurant at the park, we also saw a couple other interesting things:

A man sweeping the grass....? I don't even see anything that needs picked up.

Chris noticed this one. There's a fence coming down from the other fence and has barb wire and the whole works, but you could easily go around this fence and jump over the low cement wall. We're not sure why they even bothered with this!


The park had a 3k trail that went around the Persian Gulf. Unfortunately, we went when it was low tide so we didn't get the full experience of walking along the coastline. It was still a very nice day and I know we'll go back before our time here is up.
