DAY TWO - Doha, Qatar
December 30, 2023
So our first excursion was in the afternoon this day, so it allowed for a little exploring in the morning. The shore was a bit further than it looked (it was about a 2.5 mile walk - one way), but once I started, it had to happen. But it meant arriving on the land (not the pier) of the second country of our trip.
The actual excursion that day was on a Dhow - a traditional ship used I believe for harvesting pearls which were the famous item from this body of water.
In the evening we had a beautiful view of the city. The street/park that I had walked in during the day was filled with cars and taxis and local families enjoying their Saturday night watching the lights of the skyline.
At midnight we left the port for a sea day and the beginning of New Year's Eve day!
