Well, we made it back to Doha with no travel problems at all and it took 28 1/2 hours. Friday I spent most of my time unpacking and arranging things. Tonight John and I went for a walk around the Pearl. We noticed what has opened and what has closed since we were last here. There are 3 ice cream places and several new coffee spots. On our way back we stopped at the new grocery store to get a few things. They have a large amount of American products and a lot of everything for a small store, the veggies selection wasn't too good but what's new.
They stopped serving alcohol on the Pearl and since then 3 restaurants have closed. John asked one of the chefs and he said business is down 70%. We are hoping this gets over turned soon or a lot more places will probably close as it was very quite this evening.
Tomorrow John and Jim fly to Dubai and a busy week starts for me with AWA and book club!
