Souqs, Falcons, and dunes: 48 hrs in Doha

We chose to do an overnight layover in Doha on our trip from Sydney to Kenya, and another night from Cape Town to Sydney. It was a great way to split up the journey and do a little bit of exploring in a new place without actually spending any more money on airfare. 

I really enjoyed Doha. We stayed in the Souq Waqif area both times which made it easy to explore the massive Souqs to my hearts content, get lost in the labyrinthine alleyways, walk back to our rooms for the midday siesta, and then wander around some more at night.
