Something unusual for the weekend

[LebanonNation]

hello

I spend hours and hours trying to break the routine of every Saturday night and Sunday afternoon.

Frankly what can a couple do other than going to restaurants or cinemas or watching DVDs? Especially this January where weekends are gloomy.

Shoot your brilliant ideas (and kindly refrain from shooting the silly ideas)

thanks.

[King Rami]

to be honest, i've been facing this problem since i had a car and I found no answer to your question... restaus/pubs and cinemas that's it...

[shevchenco]

what ever happened to group studying over the weekend?

[Miss Orange]

tell me about it! at least its not toooo cold and icy for you to go out. so look on the bright side. but i totally agree i hate winter this is like winter syndrome or something like that there's nothing left to do cause u already did it all the first two months of winter!

i dont know maybe skiing? (but if u get injured i am not responsible)
or karoke, but that still consists of restos.
poker? cards? (im such a bad influence)
join an activity or something?


i dont know ya lebanesenation i tried. 2ino bifhamak because 2ad mani zah2ani started to watch lebanese series on LBC (that is like severe boredom)


good luck!

I want summer !

If you have a couple fo friends, for a Sunday, you can go have lunch at Deir el kalaa (buffet) and then they have bowling, so you can play bowling (even for kids it's fun).

For Saturday nights, ye3ne ma fina nekhteri3 chi, either go out to restaurant or visit friends and order some take away or stay home and watch TV or a DVD (probably DVD).

For a couple alone, no many options, but if you have a small group of friends, we do a lot of games, like pictionary (we actually do not draw the words, we mime them which is more hilarious). Cards is another option but not all people like it.

invite friends over and play board games? Go to the gym? go hiking?

My most interest is usually a complete change of scenery... drive somewhere a bit far... somewhere u dont usually go to

Unusual things to do in group or couple or even alone:

*a nice road trip in your car anywhere specially in Lebanon (you have super views, arez, mountains, etc)

*interior climbing (escalade intérieur)

*go see a car race or a horse race. Its always fun to watch.

*go play minipot or golf and get drunk when you play, nothing more funny than seeing people getting drunk on a golf field. Pitch some popcorn and those drunk friends will confuse them with the golf balls.

*go to the casino play poker (not for too much thaught) or black jack or even in a machine

*go to the theatre

*go see a live comedy show

*take a ride on a horse

*take a ride on a boat (mini boats-chaktoura)

*go fish

*visit the museums (it can be fun and relaxing)

*make an evening with all friends to play wii (I am sure you can rent it somewhere)

*go play in the snow if you dont know how to snowboard or ski

*make a house party

*poker nights

Think of the craziest thing you can do, and try to do it.

Like um i dont know, driving the car in reverse over a 25 mile stretch of highway.

Trying to do a 15mile/hour cartwheel, while eating an icre cream.

Count every portrait in your flat.

Hey heres one, Cache cache can be lots of fun between two grown adults.

yep.. Restos and DVDs are getting really boring:S

What about a weekend in the mountains (there is some really cozy and cheap chalets and hotels in faraya and Arez).. mm lets see, arrival saturday at 4pm, sit in the lobby jave a warm Nescafe, meet the residents, then go have a dinner then to the hotel's nightclub! then ull go to sleep, or whatever u wanna do in the room!
sunday ull have ur breakfast and then to the snow, rent a skidoo and paly in the snow if u dont know how to ski!

I know its not affordable to do it every weekend.. but try it once a month this winter!
