Back in the swing of it

We are back in Doha, starting our third year.  The jet lag was not so bad this time and I am back in the swing of it.  I am very active with the AWA: general meeting, coffee morning and outings.  Recently I went to the Camel Race Track to see them train the camels (have yet to catch a race) and the greenhouse near by.  It is so nice to get fresh produce in the desert.  That same day I went to tea with a group of ladies in the revolving restaurant here, you can see all of Doha from 47 stories up.


Friday John and I walked the Corniche, a promenade along Doha Bay of the Arabian Gulf from the Sheraton Hotel to the Museum of Islamic Art, about 5 miles.  A favorite past time here for locals and expats to do on a Friday.  The museum just put in a nice park with play equipment and cafes.  We had a snack then got a ride home.  That night we had a wonderful Mediterranean dinner outside and listened to Greek Music.
