Aww, this is a long due post.
I wasn’t able to go when this “famous ship” with the books
was here some time ago.
I am not quite sure if it’s the same ship or what.
At last, my friends and I made our way to Doha Port
at around 4 PM.
The line is already quite long but bearable.
We got the tickets for Qr 2 each and has to present our Qatar
IDs for verification.
Our bags were also scanned for security purposes.
We waited for a few minutes for the buses to come as we are
not allowed to go inside the port on
private vehicles.
The bus ride is cool, it’s my first time to actually ride one
here in Doha!
There is a police convoy while we headed to the port.
The ship is enormous!
Can you believe that all the staff/crew of the ship are
volunteers for at least 1 or 2 years?
They are quite warm and friendly too!
When we arrived, we were asked to watch a short presentation
about the ship, the organization, the
crews, etc.
They do have vast collections of books at very affordable
prices.
I was able the buy some new ones and got a free eco bag with
it.
They also have a space for kids who would want to play for a
while.
There’s also a cafeteria serving some snacks.
Want to see what I got?
Here they are:
I won’t mind visiting the ship again!
It’s truly a great way to encourage people to read!
For sure, they will be back.
