New day, new country!
WOW!
That was one of the longest bus trips of my life! I was very lucky that I took my uno cards with me when I packed my bad! I think we played for at least 10 times and then we started to play some search games!” I see I see what no one else sees and it’s green” and yes it was a tree in Iran! We were arrived.
We didn’t went immediately to the capital city and we went to shiraz. Shiraz is the 5th biggest capital city of Iran.
We first took a closer look at the city. The place where the bus stopped gave us an amazing overview of the city. We all agreed to come back this evening to look again and enjoy this view by night!
But now time to explore this new city!
We first visited the tomb of Saadi. I must admit when I heard the word tomb it made me think it was like a big building in the middle of nowhere a bit like Egypt.
But the tomb was nothing of what I expected, it was even better! Every piece of the building was very accurately built!
There was a fountain with ceramic tiles that I would love to have in my yard, I asked if I could borrow it but that wasn’t possible (the people looked very astonished when I asked it because they didn’t understand it was just a joke) this made us all laugh harder. Well I could give it a try!
After our visit to the tomb we went to our hotel : Shiraz International Parseh Hotel.
We had a drink at the bar and ate something to fill our stomach and we were ready to take a look at the same place we stood this morning. I have to admit it was even better than this morning. All those lights, just like stars! Thanks to Julie we were able to stay and relax at this place because she had the idea to buy some wine and snacks this afternoon at the store.
We just sat there and talked a bit, enjoying our wine!
We didn’t do a lot this evening but having a drink with my girls is all I need to end this day with a smile on my face!
This was it for today!
Bye Bye
