First.... to answer questions from yesterday’s PAD :

Jhaddad59 : Yep Jill, we at least have an area to stand in, but no doors or anything. Luckily they sell adjustable rails to put shower curtains on. But the area is very small, and like I told my sister, you’re not expected to keep the water in the area , the excess water drains out through the open drain on the floor. Magic for cleaning floors, but that’s about all.

DSanchez : Dee, yes, that’s my our hot water tank, to some Geyser. The water is soooo hot, you can quite easily use it to make a cup of coffee I’ve quite often scalded my hand not realising that the tap is set on hot.

Lauri : It’s the only room that’s not green!!!! and it has marble tile all the way to the roof.

Brayn : Yep, those are child locks. DS loves to unpack the cupboards but won’t repack .

Dawn : The floors, walls and counter tops are all marble….. but the cupboard doors are metal. Just lucky I guess that they match. Most places don’t

Onto to today's photo. I'm sure you can see that this is two photo's combined, apologies for the poor alignment . The room is just too small for me to fit it in one photo....

This is the room which I converted into the playroom (duh!!!) for the kids. Because of the extremely high temperatures during summer, its really not possible for the kids to play outside. Like I said on a previous PAD, the highest temp recorded last summer was 51 degrees C (124F). That excludes the humidity levels which are between 85% and 90% in Sohar.

Believe me, it gets extremely hot and very unbearable. As you open the front door the heat hits you straight in the chest, and when the humidity is at its highest, you find it very difficult to breathe. We have aircons in every single room, which during summer are on 24/7. So during summer, the kids are confined to the house, and we have to try and entertain them, hence the indoor playroom.

This would conclude the downstairs rooms, baring a little computer room, which really isn't interesting at all....... Tomorrow we move upstairs.

Hope you like it....

Thanks for looking.
