Into Iran


Its been a few days but we've busy in Iran where the internet is hard to come by.

This is going to be brief - I'll flesh it out later.

We left Turkey after a spectacular drive which culminated in crossing the border into Iran next to Mount Ararat (Bibles out please).

The Iranian border was chaos, it seems that the Turkish hate the Iranians and vice versa, but everyone loves a Brit! After nearly 4 hours of paperwork, we were through.

Our first port of call in Iran was Maku. We found a government run hotel and were practically the only people there. It was friendly and out first impressions were good, apart from the shock of long petrol queues.

No worries as they say down under.

and so to bed
