From Iran I flew to Doha, Qatar to visit my aunt, Maria. Qatar is small, ridiculously wealthy state on a pennisula which juts out of Saudi Arabia. Until the 1960s everyone was living in tents. Then the oil money started coming in and now the Qataris have more money than they know what to do with (short of building big skyscrapers, driving around in hummers and buying lots of jewelry).
