Trendy Women in Qatar

Thanks our violinist Maria Arnaout for posing her hand on the spot after it was drawn by a Qatari women with her little colour bag, almost the same as the bakery drawing decoration on their birthday cakes. :-D

Here on the picture, we were sitting near the place where Qatari were boiling tea for the guest, to let it dry.

The party at La Cigale Hotel

Panorama view from the Skybar, an open-air bar on the 11th floor.

The triangle in the middle is the islamic center at Souq Waqif.

Surroundings are full of flats which were built in restricted height to maintain the clear view of Doha.

And here are 3 pictures with zoom function to have a look at the city center, where skyscrapers are allowed.


























The piramid on the right is the Sheraton Hotel Doha.

Birthday song, cakes, wines.......
