Part of the Old Fort, Doha, Qatar, 1966-67

Part of the Old Fort, Doha, Qatar, 1966-67
A scan from a print of an old colour slide that I took sometime in 1966/67, showing part of the Old Fort in Doha, Qatar (Middle East). Wish I had more (and better!) photos from our six months' stay in Doha, from the end of 1966 to the beginning of 1967. I don't have a lot of photos taken during that time, but thankfully have enough to bring back some memories. This city and the desert outside it, was where I learned to drive, in a little red Mini : ) I still have more photos taken in Doha that I need to post as soon as possible - time is running out for this project.

Ha, a basic fort for protection ... sort of a "no frills" fort so to speak ... old and bit of the new with the TV aerial ... LOL ... well done on this era shot!!

I didn't even notice the aerial until Art mentioned it. That along with the vehicle does add something to the shot. I wonder if this is still standing.
