Walk on the Corniche

And after we left the Souq, we continued our walk along the Corniche, briefly befriending a lovely Spanish man who was working in Doha temporarily. We walked and chatted with him for awhile and took turns taking pictures for each other. We actually timed our walk pretty well, because if we had gone earlier in the day it would have been too hot, but since it was late afternoon when we were walking (after visiting the museum and souq) the temperature was perfect for a nice long walk.
