Ras Abo Aboud Road Doha, Qatar, 442-4424
... for us. Somehow he had gotten the idea (and maybe my driver said this to get us in) that we were from a tourist agency and touring so that we can bring others. Ulp. I don't think the owner was quite too happy to find out that was not the case but my driver smoothed things over, sort of, and we thanked them profusely and got the heck out of there. <br> Two entries into odd places in one day. An animal kind of day.
Ash Shaḩānīyah, Qatar carpefeline... Maybe you have to do that because of the heat here. I do know that everything says they is an afternoon "siesta" period when all the shops close then open again later in the afternoon. I'll find that out today.<br> I was drifting back to sleep when another call to prayer rang out. I thought at first maybe I had fallen ...
Doha, Qatar carpefeline... or the car and I head upstairs to see Mr. Hassiba, the Branch Manager. He is alone in his office so I knock on the door and am invited in. A smile, handshake, typical “how are you" greetings as I take my seat. “How are things?” he asks. I explain that things are well, I’m settling in just fine. It will be some moments before we can get to business. These pleasantries are more extended compared to typical North American ...
Doha, Qatar beyondwpg... having a biopsy of the suspect spots, was cleared and eventually got her RP. It’s scary to think that one could pick up and move their life to a new country with a good job, accommodations, etc. arranged only to be turned away because of a medical exam. I’m not sure what I would have done had I been refused an RP... probably travelled for a year or two. I guess it wouldn’t have been so bad. <br><br><br><br><br>
Doha, Qatar beyondwpg... there are also signs of women's independence, out in groups or alone shopping together, that we simply didn't see much of in Nepal. (I know you can't drive if you are a woman in Saudi Arabia, but I'm not sure the same thing is true in Qatar. Even if it is, the women do seem to move either alone or in packs when they want to.) There are also signs of love and familial teamwork as the men and women shop together and hold hands, like any American couple ...
Doha, Qatar jimmyandkristen... emissions de tv, musique... 4- Service avec le sourir! 5- Acceuil avec journaux, couvertures et oreillers 6- Un appuis pied pour les petits!

Doha, Qatar amidlifecrisis... crazy traffic. Boy, they do love big cars here (80 percent of the cars on the road are huge SUVs like Toyota Highlander, Ford Expedition and Hummers, etc.), and they love to drive them fast. Well, when gas is 80 US cents a gallon (yes, this means 20 cents a liter) I guess mpg is not a concern. During this back and forth on the city highways we discovered that actually most of those skyscrapers you see in the pictures are now in construction and most of ...
Doha, Qatar gapostol... oryx farm. Leave City Centre Doha at midday, being walking along the Corniche. Lunch at new restaurant in the Balhumbra building. Mezze, very nice. Keep walking to the Grand Mosque, get seriously dehydrated. Run out of water & all shops are closed. Finally manage to get a bus to Central Bus Station. Stagger into Al-Najada shopping centre and collapse on the floor in the air con. When feeling better take some time to appreciate the nice ...
Doha, Qatar brayToo many photos no doubt and probably of all the same thing felt like a japanese tourist just clicking camera. Trying to give an idea of how working area looks. Basically working in finance area also known as West Bay and it is literally like an enormous building site, there are dirty great holes in the groung with pile caps waiting to be ...
Doha, Qatar dragey... golf course, we can go to the university and can spend some time there. well we started and at the gat of the university, the driver told us that we can get down but the authorities will not allow us to get inside the university without a pass. There are local women studying here so they have imposed this. Well, this is my first such experience. We returned to the hotel and in the afternoon I returned to the office for some work.
