A travel diary I wrote casually during the three hours I was in transit in Doha...

After traveling for so many years, I have never thought of writing a travel diary. After doing so, I always have the urge to write something every time I have free time.

So I have this travel diary that records my running accounts...

I just happened to go back to China for a vacation and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival :)

After planning the itinerary, buying air tickets, packing luggage, and going through security smoothly, we finally started the long journey home. The whole trip took two days:(

The moment I boarded the plane, I felt like I was returning home, but in fact, I lived there. The place is a small city. Every time I fly to Shanghai for more than ten hours, I stay one night and then take the high-speed train the next day.

Qatar Air actually does not allow me to turn off my phone and provides mobile phone signal on the plane. and 15 minutes of WI-FI. Unfortunately, by the time I figured it out, the plane had landed :(

The transfer time this time was really too long. It took 40 minutes to fly from a country in the Middle East. Landed in Doha, Qatar.

The arrival time is 10:40, and the time to take off again is 2 am, which refers to the local time.

Get off the plane, according to the transfer. Instructions to go through the security check. There are not many people today, put your computer bag and luggage, take off your shoes, take off your belt, take off your pants, no, it seems that you don't need your pants, just take out your wallet.

Just go through the door. As long as it doesn't ring, no one will shake the scanner up and down for you.

After passing the security check, you will see a huge display screen with people from different countries walking quietly on it. It feels very strange. , does this mean Doha welcomes you?

The security check is upstairs. After passing the security check, follow the flow of people downstairs. There is a shopping street downstairs, where you can eat, drink and have fun.

But what kind of animal is this one with a light bulb on its head that occupies the center of the entire terminal? If you know it, it will give me a better idea.

There are huge advertising screens on both sides. , looks like a Microsoft advertisement, the cloud is overwhelming, can Microsoft beat Amazon?

When traveling overseas, you always need to bring something back. In addition to purchasing it yourself before departure, there are a lot of duty-free shops at the airport.

Unfortunately, most of them are cigarettes, wine, chocolate, and cosmetics. I was short on money, so I just passed by, so I didn’t go in.

I only bought two Marlboro strips. I went back and showed it to my family. The packaging of foreign cigarette boxes is relatively simple and the text is straightforward. The pictures on the cigarette boxes are more horrifying. They are all pictures of rotten hands and lungs.

Compare them again. The packaging of Chinese cigarettes is extremely luxurious and luxurious, and the advertisements are also shy, so that people who understand will naturally understand, so they will not write in such big words.

< p>Because I was in a hurry, I didn’t have dinner. When I saw eat street, I immediately thought of the word snack street.

The most popular place in this snack street is Burger King, which was the first Burger King chain in China to open that year. When I was in Wanda Plaza, I never expected that it would become one of the fast food I often order abroad.

When I was tired from walking, I sat down to take a rest. A loli sat on the table opposite and ate. French fries. There is a woman in black veil on the right side of the man in the white robe and diagonally across from him. I wonder if they are his other two wives. Unfortunately, I didn’t dare to take pictures of them. The world of rich people can only be envious.

I looked at the big screen several times. It was only eleven o'clock now, and the departure would not be until two o'clock the next day. It was estimated that the boarding time was too late, and the big screen did not show the location of the boarding gate.

In desperation, I had no choice but to ask the front desk, who politely told me that this direction, last one, E3, I actually understood without any problems, and I gained a little more confidence in my hearing. confidence.

While walking and writing so many words with one hand, I saw the big letter E on the right, and finally found the boarding gate and checked that it was indeed my flight.

So I was half relieved, why half, because the boarding gate might be changed later.

Therefore, if you are far away, you need to check the situation every now and then, and you also need to listen to the radio at all times. If you can’t understand complicated things, then focus on the numbers of the flight number.

There is still 20% of the battery left, so I quickly found a socket nearby. Then, I finished writing the above text with peace of mind, matched the pictures, and then clicked to publish:)

PS: In fact, the release was not successful. I can open WeChat and read news online at the airport, but the APP cannot be connected and can only be saved on my local laptop.
