City Tour
On Sunday I was able to go on a tour of the city of Doha, Qatar, thanks to John suggesting it to HR. They had another guy, Ivan, coming in for a pre-employment visit, so I got to tag along. Our driver was a very nice guy, and we got to see a lot of the city.
I think the highlight for me was the gold and jewelry souq. It wasn't a great experience, but it showed me that if I want to go to the souqs to buy anything, I need someone who knows how to bargain. Which I'm not particularily good at.
I was also impressed with the Emir's Arabian horses. There were a ton of them, and they really took care of them.
So, take a look at the pictures linked here to see what I saw!
