Sheik Faisals museum








Well I haven't updated the blog for a long time so I will go back to January and share some of our outings with you. One sunny day we headed out of town to Sheik Faisal's museum. It is a private museum that holds a great collection of interesting artefacts from Qatar’s Past. It is housed in this amazing new building that looks a bit like a castle I suppose. It was a great day out and Gaye and Anna Voisey came with us and so did Pat and Jeff Churchill and Hazel Reddington who was looked the persian carpets. Hazel was amazed at the similarity between the designs in the carpets and maori designs.
