Gold, gold, and more gold

Last night we went on a trip to downtown Doha Gold Souqs (shops) and the Old Souqs. I've never seen so many gold/jewelry stores in one place. It got old pretty quick. There were a lot of ornate pieces and the prices weren't that bad either. Many of them were downright gaudy.

The Old Souqs area was a lot more interesting. There were a lot more handicrafts and some really interesting resturaunts. We ate at a Morocan restauraunt. One of the guys had camel. I tried some. It wasn't bad, a very different taste though (By the way the meat tastes better than a camel smells). I went with the safe Beef Kabob. It was pretty good. I didn't buy anything, just looked.

By the way, it was still hotter than hell at 9pm!
