The Luminous Festival in Lusail City , Qatar is a fantastic suggestion for those looking to escape the harsh realities of the world we are living in and immerse themselves in the enchanting realm of light shows and displays. For those seeking an escape to a world of LED ballerinas, glowing jugglers, a laser man, and an illusionist creating a sense of a better world.
Visitors get a unique experience at the festival, which blends Qatari heritage and modern culture. A great place to take kids. Interactive activities and entertainment abound. Since it's free, I recommend weekdays since weekends are usually crowded. Though "Al Sa’ad Plaza " is large.

Strolling around in the Japanese Pavilion at Expo2023 this caught my eye ."Japanese technologies ,controlled environments will bring fresh strawberies to the Qatari market all year around .Coming soon ! Can't wait !
I have never seen so long line in front of any stall . I calcuated roughly 100 people .
The security had to put up cordons . Though everyone seemed to be waiting queitly.
I asked some women in the line .
"What are you waiting for ? "
" It is koshary "
" Do they give it for free? "
" No , but it is a famous one "
I admire people who are ready to wait so much for a dish that is thought to stand out .
That's not me at all .I just picked a Thai soup from a stall where no one was waiting .
Sitting in the park I noticed that two young Qatari women next to me were sharing
a large cup of koshary .
" Is that the famous one ?"
" Yes , we were waiting for it one hour ."
" Was it worth ? I asked
They did not answer just gave me a small portion for I can taste it .
It was not bad .You know fresh pasta with lentil , fresh tomato sauce etc
The famous Egyptian street food . A large cup for two people only cost QR 35 .
Another place I saw long queue was in front of a truck selling nothing but coffee .
Middle aged and younger Qataris were waiting patiently .They must know the brand
from their vacations in London . "Grinde"
A shorter line was in front of a Chimney Cake vendor . That is the famous Hungarian
"Kurtos kalacs " - though I think its origins are unkown to many here .Just they had tasted while on vacation in England .
Compared to the previous year ,the festival's location was far better .Al-Bida park is older and more charming place than the recently constructed Lusail boulevard .
For my taste , there were still too many burger stands . Even a restaurant named " French Cantine "
sold only hamburgers and fries .
A few spots that had something unique to offer were ; 1 .Mammig Armenian restaurant had fish in cherry sauce
2 .The Balkan Food Factory made his own pita and offered unique flavors and sauces .
3 .The flavours of Peru were available at Coya restaurant
Also there was a fancy looking gourmet restaurant serving dishes starting at QR 85 for a main course .It was absurd that they had a regular coke on their drink menu for QR 35 . Available at the stores for 2,5 rials.
Spending time in the park was very nice .Sharing a table with strangers . Escaping the cruel reality of this world ,of this era that we find ourselves in.

1 .Japanese Cheesecake
I'm a huge fan of Japanese cheese cakes .This one was absolutely brilliant. A delightful treat that won't spike your blood sugar but still satisfies your sweet tooth.This dessert strikes the perfect balance between sweetness and creaminess, just the way I like it.

There were many pleasant winter days during my early childhood in 1960s Hungary.
However, there is one particular day that stands out in my memory, filled with numerous small details. The weather in January was snowy and bright.One evening, mom prepared a delicious fish jelly. She would kindly pour the soup into small dishes . Then she placed the dishes near the window. I was absolutely thrilled! Just patiently waiting for the liquid to transform into a solid.I inspected the dishes every ten minutes .I went to bed earlier than usual.Before I knew it, I was jolted awake by the sound of guests arriving. I heard the lively and cheerful conversation of the adults. It was late night
They were buzzing with excitement.
"Guess what? " - my dad stormed into the room ."Your mom's friend and her husband just had a new baby! Time to wake up and greet the new comer !" .
I was not in the mood .But my father kindly picked me up and brought me to the living room.I got a terrible tanrum . I kicked him all over and was screaming that I want to be put back to my bed .
Everyone was shocked . So was I .I did not understand myself ,either .
I expected some kind of punishment the next morning .
My mom just said, with a hint of sadness, "You made my friend very sad."
Seems like you were a bit drowsy and not quite yourself."
"However , just get dressed .We are going to visit my friend with
the baby. No kindergarten today . But you will have to apologize . "
I was happy to find out that I could stay at home with mom and my six-month-old brother .It was cozy and warm inside. But it was even better to go out .Our compound was near a forest . It was a calm place to live at and that day it was also bright .Snow and sun combined with the crispness of fresh air . It was a majestic morning .
My apologies were accepted . I was given some biscuits and a hot drink .My mom and her friends were chatting about grown-up issues.. I was playing with the little ones .We put them side by side in the crib . They showed great interest towards each other . They were talking happily in their baby language .
Every now and then, my mom mentioned " how come !they were born just a few days apart! " It's something I never really pondered. I was just a young child, barely four and a half years old.
I only remember being happy for my little brother. He's only six months old, but he already has a friend! A lovely and happy baby girl !
After that, we walked home through the snow wonderland.
For lunch, we had the jelly.
The day was easy.I can still remember nuances about it, and they make my heart warm.
_____________
Prologue: The babies grew and became great friends.
This did not last forever.Dad got a new job.We had to relocate far when they were 4.
Friendship dissolved.
I just learnt more about that night when the baby was brought home as an adult. It was an adoption from a foster home..The manager made the procedure lengthy and complicated. While he was on vacation, the deputy director called the would be parents and gave them approval swiftly.
