Souq Waqif Festival

We had a night out on the town... a street festival Doha-style in the old souq (market) area. Imported street performers lap up the attention. Here's a small sample. "Bolli" - girls dressed as swans on stilts. "Ice Cream Ali" - funny tricks with real ice cream. "Garry Stretch" - one word: freaky. "Alex the Cat" - nothing compared to the real tigers the Qataris house in their homes as pets. "Viktor and Ian" - awesome acrobats.
Our tummies are full of beef rendang, mee goreng and prawn sambal, followed up with delizioso Italian gelato, we're off home to bed! Happy little Vegemites.
