Amazing
What a time you are having guys. And thanks for sharing your experiences. We're travelling vicariously with you to places we may not choose for ourselves. When are you home? Fiona and Dougiexx

Wailing
All your photos are great, Istanbul obviously just lends itself to all those small caught moments. Glad you both had wonderful haircuts! Didn't manage to get to Istanbul on this trip but after reading Orhan Pamuk it is definitely on the list for next time..

Too expensive in Mosman
All fine on the backing up images. How did Jake the Snake go in HSC, or shouldn't we ask about that.

Fascinating...
What a great read, I loved this blog! You've certainly convinced me that this would be a great spot to visit....however won't be a for a while I don't think. I hope you keep travelling for a long, long time because I am really enjoying your insights. I always get a chuckle out of them too!

Yep, Iran is an eye-opener to many
I think there are very few people who visit Iran that leave without loving it and being amazed by its people and how different they are from what main stream media would like you to believe. Unfortunately all too often government and people get mixed up, as if one represents the other. Even in democracies governments don't necessarily always reflect the views and ways of the people they govern, and yet we persist on judging people by those who govern them. So, as far as I am concerned there can't be enough bloggers who visit the 'unloved' countries in this world and tell it how it really is. So, keep up the good work.

more pictures would be really grate . merci

Fantastic! Love it!

Nice entry Mr Hemmingway
I must admit Gaz, I have quite enjoyed living vicariously through your travel blogs and have come to the conclusion that you should write for a living as your writing is a class act. I tips me hat to you guvner

I'm your 6th reader...
Rick Steves is an American travel show host who until recently only did programs on Europe. However, as an exception to the rule, he recently did a program on Iran. His description of the country and people was just what you found...a really safe and fascinating country and very hospitable people. I'm currently planning a trip along the Silk Road and am debating whether to enter Iran or not. They probably don't even give visas to Americans so I may not have the choice. Will you be continuing along the Silk Road to Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyistan, and Kazakhstan and then China? I hope so for the sake of my research!
