Just thought I would give you a glimpse of sights to see on the roads around Doha.
The above truck is transporting chairs and rugs for a wedding tent. Males and females celebrate the wedding ceremony separately. Males typically gather under a goat hair tent in a majilis style reception area consisting of Persian rugs on the ground and ornate chairs lining the perimeter of the tent on all four sides. I have not seen any female celebrations as yet.
This is one of the smaller buses I have seen that transport labourers to and from the construction sites. Poor guys work long hours and live in huge compounds filled with dormitories and very basic conditions.
Camels are prized possessions and symbols of wealth. They may be used for transportation, animal husbandry, and racing. Yes, we do see camel on the menus.
This guy is a fairly regular feature on Al Corniche. Found the picture on Qatar Living. I have also seen his car plastered full of flags, Qu'ranic verses, etc. Seems a happy soul.
And this last one is an accurate description of me hanging on for dear life in the land of sand.
TAIT! (Thank Allah it's Thursday) PBUH (Peace be upon him)
