Well, since there's a pause as we gather our thoughts between trips, I thought I'd put a few photos up of our recent travels in Qatar, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. This will be more of a 'photo essay', so there won't be too many words, but I hope you enjoy the pics...

Our journey began in Doha, capital of the Gulf state of Qatar, where we stayed
with Becky & Niall and their young son Jake, kind friends and perfect hosts. |
 |
The city is a bit like Las Vegas, created amid a desert with truckloads of cash... |
 |
.... and it really lights up at night.. |
 |
Of course, Becky and I took our time on Billionaires Row to select
which mega-yacht was the right one for us. |
 |
Becky & Niall's home is high up in Somerset House... |
 |
... which is one of the 'baby' buildings in Doha. |
 |
Some locals out on a late afternoon stroll, not that you can really walk much in Doha
because of the size of the place, let alone the heat. Most men wear full-length
white thobes,or 'dish dashas, whereas women have the black abbayas... |
 |
.... but there's always time for a good gossip over Sunday lunch. |
 |
Jake and Becky |
 |
And when we stumbled across a sort of
kite festival, I couldn't resist this photo.
Any suggested captions welcome... |
