Sandstorm Aftermath

I was at home spending time with my little one, when I heard a bang in my room's window glass. 
Oh No! It's sandstorm! Sandstorm usually characterized by a heavy strong wind, with a dusty vague color red orange sky. Sometimes it accompanies with little or heavy rain. It seldom occurs all year round, approximately three to five times a year. It also indicates a change of weather, from winter to summer or the other way around. 
I cannot see anything outside from afar. If you are out driving or crossing the street, just be cautious because the street has zero visibility. In times like this, you have to wear mask to protect you from the dusty wind. 
The sandstorm aftermath is so difficult, because you will have a lot of cleaning up to do. So much dust in all places in the house! Pictures below were the actual photo during and after the thirty minutes episode of sandstorm!

RedSand


Here in Riyadh, people are fond of going to Redsand either during Ramadan or Hajj holidays. During these times, almost all of the companies closes for one week to celebrate the occasions.  Most of the Filipinos come here with their families to unwind and have a relaxing moment. 

This place is only one hour from the city center.  You can bring along food and drinks with you because there's no place you can buy anything you like there. You can also bring a blanket to sit on while you're there. You can also rent for a four wheel motorbike to go around the ground and the top of the mountains.
