Gulf Paradise Hotel Doha

... I think, and has an ice rink, 4 floors of shops, and is luxury just waiting to be purchased. I said goodbye to my driver of two days and head into the mall for some lunch and a haircut.<br> This accomplished, it's just a huge mall and without a specific purpose, I really have nothing to do here so head back outside to find a taxi back to my hotel. The minute I exit the mall, I am pounced upon by some ...

I really amaze myself sometimes. It is just incredible how amazing I can be - amazingly stupid today in this case. To be fair, I had help being stupid. I had a map this morning and looked at the location of the hotel, checked with the desk clerk (my accomplice in stupidity), saw where the Corniche was and asked him if I could walk there. In his defence, I didn't ask if it would be better to take a cab or easier ...

... for the driver&#8217;s license application and the ones I had taken the day after I arrived were unflattering to say the least with the jet lag and all. <br><br>Everything went very smoothly until I got to the police station where I had to submit my application. I approached the main building but when I peered into the open doors I say a kitchen and figured that they were not the doors I should be going through. I asked a couple of guys having a ...

... our fingers being bruised, hurting, and blood woundn't stop. Kids even did the 'act like I smearing my bloody finger on you' while using a different finger. We laughed about the whole process and Annette snapped a couple of pictures. Aftewords it was back down stairs and another 10 minutes to demand a receipt so I could expense these charges.

... the kids, dressed like any Western child would be dressed, riding in the shopping carts filled with food and other accessories like shampoo, children's sneakers, t-shirts, and a new toaster. I looked on in amazement as a father and mother (who did not show any of her face) walked around with a little girl in jeans and a black t-shirt. When would she decide, or be asked, or however it may happen, to lose her t-shirt and jeans and don herself from head ...

... As well as this we have an amazing jumping spider, that makes women screech with excitment. We stopped in Doha for about 4 hours before we had to fly home where two hot chocolates and a soft drink cost £18, well they would have had I not walked away muttering kind words.

... there were plenty of seats on the 11pm. Mr. Wizard did manage to get on the 11pm. So I cleared security for the third time tonight and got to Doha at least 1.5 hours earlier than I was originally scheduled. Arrival in Doha was such a breeze. The Doha airport has no jet bridges. All passengers are bussed. Qatar Airways uses specially designed busses for First Class passengers only. No standing on these ...

... on track, the one that involves me living ad working in barcelona. Hopefully in around 10 hours I should arrive to Rome. I will update this blog with pics of the last few places then write a once last blog about Asia in general, what stuck with me and what I noticed. It will surely be a nice read. For now bye to everyone from Qatar.

... I walked out of the airport expecting to be pounced on by taxi drivers. But I put on my "I know where I'm going" face and just marched out of the airport - right past the twenty dollar taxis into town and got on a local bus (called a "dalla dalla" here) and made the ride into town in a rickety old van stuffed full of friendly locals for only 30 cents. The bus dropped me off a short walk from the guesthouse I had selected (The Garden Lodge on Kaunda Road). When I checked in ...
