About two years ago, I posted my photo essay about how Qatar celebrate their National Day: Qatar National Day. This year, I did not go the that parade, an National Parade, I thought that was enough, but I want to see something else.
Yes, Qatar government still held that parade in the morning, but in the afternoon they were having fireworks by the Corniche. Last year I watched it with some friends as through a balcony of a restaurant that has a very nice location to see the fireworks, This year I decided to skip all that fancy dinner and just go down there, where the action happen, and these are the picture of what I’ve seen at the Corniche of Doha:
- Started off by spraing ‘foam spray’ from the car to the “less fortunate” people at the sidewalk of the street
- The ‘Nationalist’ showing off by standing on top of moving car
- This time ‘sitting’ on cars with a sword
- Worshiping the Emir of Qatar….
- “Qatar” car on parade
- Cars showing the Emir’s picture… presumable the driver can still see thru the window, but how about other driver… to see whether there is a driver driving this car?
- Doha, a moments before the fireworks
- Fireworks celebrating the National Day….
- Laser works after the fireworks
