Finally managed to get away from my hotel this evening when I caught up with colleagues for a quick drink. We met up at the Raffles Hotel at a bar with a spectacular view of the Lusail area and the wider Doha conurbation. It really reminded me of Felix - a restaurant in the Peninsular Hotel in Hong Kong which we used to take visitors too - it had terrific views back over Victoria Harbour and towards HK Island - with the neon lit skyline of Causeway Bay, Wanchai and Central much in evidence.
Whilst the view tonight was not quite as spectacular (although all the major landmarks were visible and there was also quite a lot of water and a new Island being built), it was a pleasant change from being holed up in the hotel with only room service to look forward to!
