I forgot to post this last month but Ankur and my good friends in Doha threw me a surprise baby shower in early March :) Apparently they had been planning for quite awhile but I was completely in the dark. As you can see in the photo I was totally shocked!!! Here I am, thinking I'm going to spend a nice quiet evening with my friend before she leaves on her 5 month trip. Suddenly there's like 20 people, cake, gifts, and little cute pink things everywhere. I don't know how I managed to miss all the hints.
Here are some of them:
1) People talked about at the office (to my defense it was always in Arabic)
2) Ankur's cousin, Nehal, flew in to visit us (she was close by in Bombay and we hadn't seen Rohi yet!)
3) Ankur kept asking if I wanted a baby shower or not (my answer was always no but really I meant yes :) he knows me really really well)
4) Best of all...Steve said, "Ankur just called to ask me about a baby shower..." (I thought it was a bit odd but Ankur had just asked me the night before about a baby shower also. So I thought maybe he's just getting someone else's opinion. I don't know?!?)
Anyway, it was a fantastic surprise :)

Surprise!!!
Camel Beauty Pagent
Who knew they had beauty contests for camels and to top it off could get sold for $2.7million!?!! Of course, I've only seen your everyday 10-riyal-to-ride-the-camel camel and not any prize winning ones. Personally, they look pretty wonky to me: giant lips, messed up teeth and weird shaped heads. We're planning to go see a camel race this weekend though so if I see any million dollar camels I will post the photos.
