I was driving home from work last night with Maya and Mike, and this lovely sight appeared on the road in front of us. In case you are wondering, yes those are caskets. They are in the back of a pickup truck, sticking out over the edge, with a single rope holding them down (but not necessarily preventing them from sliding off).

I had to take a picture, no matter how macabre you might think it is. It was crazy to see this on the road, especially since in Islam you aren't burried in a casket. So, that leads me to believe they were for some poor immigrant, possibly christian. In any case, it's a great feeling to drive behind a pickup truck full of coffins. That's Doha for you.
