So, I'm kind of glad you were just passing through - although 13 hours in an airport is one heck of a long time to wait! :)Lowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15305748075301453010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3988299562536912229.post-6542076243764853172014-04-11T10:16:32.354-07:002014-04-11T10:16:32.354-07:00Love the oryx.Love the oryx.tapirgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10098235462073493603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3988299562536912229.post-75396382474099898222014-04-09T18:11:19.193-07:002014-04-09T18:11:19.193-07:00I'm sorry you're reacting with such discom...I'm sorry you're reacting with such discomfort and culture shock to the beginning of your latest adventure, and trust that it will be uphill from this point on. I read over the last two paragraphs of your post several times, and found myself wondering what the inside story is about Qatar. It sounds a lot like Saudi Arabia, in the sense that the upper classes, although theoretically the ones in control, are almost as restricted by social convention as the lower classes. Maybe even more so in some ways. As always, it goes double for the women--but that doesn't surprise me.
