Doha

Man, moving ahead in time zones is wierd. It's like going to the very near future. I really feel like I've been travelling for 2 days, but really it's been not even 24 hours yet. Anyways, I want to always travel on Qatar airways. Swank! My huge plane had like a dozen people on it, so I had 2 seats to myself. The food was super-schmancy, the bathrooms awesome, and you can choose from a ton of movies, tv shows and music in Hindi, Arabic, English or French, to watch on your own little tv. And why yes, I would like a hot towel, thank you! The airport's kinda blah though. Maybe that's just cause it's 2 am here so not much is open, but the bathrooms are gross. Use some of that oil money to buy new toilet seats, Qatar, 'cause if the're duct taped together, it's not so good.

More essentials: Snapple and Diet Coke, Qatari-style

Koka Kola Lyte and As-snapple. Two things I didn't learn in Arabic class.

Oh boy, aren't you happy I taught Dad how to leave comments? I bet you are...I still can't seem to convince him that he doesn't need to address nor sign his posts. Ah well, baby steps. I'm so very glad you found Diet Coke...who knew (you're sick!)
