Well it’s been an exciting week or so as one of our staff members has decided to get married to a very lovely Lebanese chap she meet here in Doha. Amy brought Zouheir around to see Steve and I soon after the Eid break and we got to check him and he passed inspection.
So we ladies decided a “hens night” was called for. Souq Waqif, also known by us a s the old–new souq because it is new but built in the old style, was buzzing on a Thursday night and we certainly turned some heads. We dined at
an amazing Iranian restaurant and had a fabulous night with great food, wonderful fruit juices (yes fruit juices - you should try lemon and mint) and some challenges for Amy.
She handled them all well and there was much interest in the group of woman aged from 26 to 60+ wandering about with one of the younger ones wearing a veil. Certainly it was two cultures coming together and everyone was interested and joined in the fun. The young ones went on to a night club us older ones decided it was time to head for home with a smile still in our faces.
