A dome over one of the halls at The Dubai Mall.

We’re back in Doha for a long weekend, and the city is just as spectacular as it was the last time we were here in January. We flew on a most fantastic plane, a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, but wow, what a rough flight due to a storm over Riyadh and a lot of turbulence approaching Doha. And I’m not a happy flier even in perfect weather!

Anyway, I’m posting this image of The Dubai Mall, mainly to say I’m not sure if I can keep up with commenting while here. My own fault, but I don’t have a working mouse with me, and I discovered this evening that it slows me down to a crawl (read hours and hours) using the touch pad to leave comments. I’ll do what I can, but at least will catch up when we get back to Riyadh on Sunday.
