Shahram and I woke up the next day and went to the bread store to buy some fresh bread. When we got here last night it was dark. The sun was just coming up now and the scenery was breath taking. It was very nice weather and the mountains and the trees and dthe sea air was refreshing. I came here 8 years ago with my brother in law and his wife. They had just finished one of the towers and working on a second. At that time I could buy a condoo for $20000. It is atleast 10 times that amount now. They have built a huge resort community with restaurants, recreation areas, a cabin that would take you to the top and a new ride called " Sortmeh". The "Telecabin" was there when I came here 8 years ago. We rode it to the top. It as quite an adventture since I have a fear of heights. It was very nice uup there and they had benches and trails and cofee shops. We spent a few hours there and smoked a Hukaah. When we came back down the hill, they stopped Ali and Maryam and took them to interegate them and make sure they are married. It is against islamic laws for unmarried boys and girls to date and other stuff kids do here.
It was a nic day, we took some pictures and I even got brave and took a ride on the "Sortmeh". It was fun.
The next day we headed to Rasht where my cousin Jalil who I spoke about previously is attending college.
More to come...
