OK, I am testing the waters here!

deep down they harbor some jealousy towards us

I hope you were joking but I did't see a smilie to indicate you were!! 

Anyway, as for me, unfortunately I've never been to Jeddah so I'm not in a position to answer any Jeddah-specific questions.  I guess it's that way with most of us.

(oh, and from what I've heard about 'your' humidity, trust me, there ain't too much jealousy on my part lol)

+1!
After I spent couple of weeks in Jeddah breathing liquid air ... I was so happy to come back to Riyadh!

Saudi is full of extreme mesurements everywhere. lol.

wilson, I hope you find your answers in here. though I would like to know what were your un-answered questions ?

All cities in KSA have their own share of beauty, charm, opulence, and life. Ive lived in most of the big ones and have enjoyed every moment of it although my favorite will always remain, ALKHOBAR.

In Riyadh, if you go out in the day during summer, you feel your brain getting fried.

In Khobar, if you go out in the night during summer, you cannot breath, coz of the humidity. Same goes for Jeddah, I am sure.

So take your pick

Obviously the pick HAS to be Riyadh since many people seem to survive perfectly well without brains.  However, we HAVE to breathe!!

Any news from the Jeddites?

It seems not to have occurred to many of you but the reason the chat is primarily about Riyadh is that most of us LIVE in Riyadh!!!

Wait and see! Your little city forums will be DEAD.  You'll be sneaking into OUR forum to vicariously enjoy our fun chat, clever wit and overall stimulating observations about life in the Kingdom!

Jeddah is the best city in the kingdom
You have more freedom then any other city
Also it’s located on sea side so it’s food city and all kind of food you can find it here unlike Riyadh
If you finish work at PM so I think you will have greet time to spend in Jeddah
There is red sea mall where you can go at night or al-Arab mall, Jeddah mall, mega mall
Or you can walk by the sea side in al kornesh
As a single man here in Jeddah you are restricted to some places at night time as most of malls on weekend restricted to family only so you better find a women next to you for full enjoyment and tour 


any way i am free most of the time i can pick you up and take you around in jeddah
