Day 2 On the road

We spent Wednesday night on the flight from Singapore to Doha.

I had never heard of Doha.. Its the capital of Qatar, which I knew nothing about eiter.

Well, here we are at the airport in Doha. We arrived at 6am and we are due to depart for Istanbul at 11am.

So, we booked into the posh lounge at $25 each. I gave the guys on the desk a $100 note and they said they would bring me the $50 change.
That was 2.5 hours ago, and to someone suspicious like me, it has the makings of a scam.. We will see what happens when I kick up a stink in about half an hour.

Nadya recons that Quatar airways are great.. loads of movies to watch and not enough time.
The plane was really new and the food really good.

Nadya's bit:
Doha seems to be in the middle of the desert. It's so hazy that you can look directly at the sun and the sky is the colour of sand. You can't even see as far as the perimiter of the airport, if anyone has read The Langoliers by Steven King you can get the idea...

So far, so good
