Shop Till you Drop


One of the first things you need to do when you arrive in Doha is to shop to equip your apartment with necessities. Rhonda and Connie, her mom, took me to a few of the malls to get started. As in the rest of Doha, the malls are ultra modern, if not downright fantastic. The mall pictured above is the Villagio Mall which features 220 stores, a canal that runs  through the mall complete with gondolas, and a hockey rink in the food court area. The shops are mostly high-end ... I saw a cell phone for sale for a mere 24,000 Qatar riyals (about $8,000 CAD)!
