Qatar Rugby Championship

 

Last Friday evening we attended our first rugby game!  Qatar was playing Malaysia for the championship.  The stadium isn't far from our house and it was free to attend!

It was also extraordinarily hot with absolutely no breeze in the stadium.  Thankfully, we arrived just before half time, so we only had to endure about an hour of the heat!
Rugby is a very interesting sport.  Kind of a mix between football, soccer and wrestling!

And maybe a little gymnastics!!!
Despite the heat, we did have fun and hope to enjoy some more sporting events during the cooler weather!

Our son played rugby and I enjoyed learning the fun words that go along with those strange moves - like "scrum" (my favorite). You guys are pretty hard core to sit outside in last week's crazy heat! I enjoyed this post!
