We get back to the hotel and the nice porter offers us a lift to the Metro station in the hotel golf cart. That quickly turned into a thrill ride when he decided to go on the main road and against the direction of tragic. Luckily it was a short ride. Our flight wasn't until 2.25am but we were...

You sure are keeping us waiting.😉

Have a great trip.😀

Next up was a visit to the Islamic Art Museum. It's in a gorgeous building designed by I.M. Pei. It looks more impressive on the inside. I loved this photograph in the museum. They also had some exhibits from current fashion designers. Most things were quite old, like these intricate...

On our last day in Qatar we walked around a bit, we past a Flower Arranging Academy. (An improvement on the Pole Dancing Academy we saw in South Africa.) I poked my head into the Academy because the door was open and a lady very kindly invited me inside to look around. It was a creative space...

But which print did you buy?

I often find the Insta girlies entertaining but also a bit sad. They seem so focused on getting the "perfect" picture, they forget to enjoy themselves and actually appreciate where they are. They can be a tad annoying when they do a whole photoshoot in a spot I just want to take a quick picture in.

I'm glad you were feeling better for the redemption arc.

Have a wonderful Birthday Trip next week.

My family watches the Muppet Christmas Carol each year as well. My oldest nephew moved in with his girlfriend and was shocked she'd never seen it. He took care of that real quick, can't be part of the family and not watch the Muppets.😂 And I like the term Insta Girlies, I'm going to steal it...

When it comes to technology P is special.😂 But since Qatar is a Muslim country Qatar Airways has the Koran on the entertainment system. You don't even have to look for it. There is a tile on the screen for Movies,/Music,/TV shows/ Koran.

Qatar is a small country with less than 3 million inhabitants, Doha is the capital and has 1.2 million inhabitants. Only 15%of the people that live in Qatar are Qatari, the rest are immigrants. Qatari citizens don't have to work if they don't want to as the government gives them a stipend every...

Thanks for reading my TR, and your not that late, I still have nearly 11 months and 5 castles to go.😀I'm not really a plane person so I don't know if this was the planned plane or a swap but I was very happy with it. I have flown in the newer ones with the Q-suites for work and actually prefer...

Same, especially with Disney prices.🤣

While we have changed planes quite a few times in Doha over the years, we have never taken the time to visit the city. Qatar Airways has some amazing deals on hotels, to promote tourism, so we booked a 3 night's stay.We did this probably in April 2024 or so, right after we booked our RTW ticket...

We handed in Baby Lola at the airport and had a very comfortable 8 hour a flight to Qatar. I like to tease P. because when we were getting serious with our planning of the round the world trip, I told her I was going to fly business class. And for a long time P said that that was a waste of...

Yeah , we already shipped 2 kits to people that wanted them and I'll be finding a post office again soon to ship number 3 and 4. If some Disney forum friends would like some Disney things from the room or a little trinket from the park, I'd be glad to post it to them. Makes me happy to brighten...

I'm going to give away some of the Disney merchandise I'll get during my visits as I can't take it all with me. I'll raffle it on my Insta if you want to throw our name in the hat. If you win I'll ship it to you free of charge. Just sharing the pixie dust.

Just to be different, I'm guessing the one with the dog in the boat.

Thank you for doing the trip report, I know it takes a lot of time but I do appreciate it. It's fun to see/read how other people spend their days.
