Dasht-e Kavir – the Great Salty Desert

Ok. We did it half way :-) but please . .excuse me .. cycling in 50C is against Health & Safety Regulations even here ok ?
And BTW the train from Tabas to Mashhad was also veeery hot (but full of very friendly people) so we still suffered a lot :-)

We are in Mashhad but leaving tomorrow for Hate-the-tourist-why-they-want-to-come-here-give-them-5-days-visa country. In Short? TURKMENISTAN :-)
Still happy, still together, still .. or even more excited about all the new faces we gonna see in Central Asia.
Enjoy the pictures and … c’mon . .don’t be shy to write something. There is a little window on the bottom of the page. Use it :-)

This Gorgeous Turkey

We are not cycling much this days. Ania has some silly knee injury so we took a bus just to avoid climbing some 1200 m. Oh well .. part of the “team trip”.

We are around Van Lake :-) so to use it properly .. we took a famous ferry boat across the lake. Great adventure AND since we were the ONLY passengers the crew took us all around :-) and even “forced us” to have a lunch with them.

ok .. some postcards from the Gorgeous Turkey today. Here they are!








love and kisses
like always

Leaving Syria

:-)

on the way to Damascus

“Welcome to Syria!” it’s the local mantra. One doesn’t have to speak English to know how to say it.
The best part of it? They don’t only say it – they do it. With smiles, with free coffee, free breakfasts, free fruits, free … you name it (almost ;-)
Great people!
