Yazd
Yazd looks gorgeous, and I love your mosque photos. Sorry to hear that Scott is still sick, hope the antibiotics kick in soon. Safe travels to Shiraz (which I just googled, and was sorry to see that it isn't wine related!).

If you believe the Lonely Planet this IS where the Shiraz grape comes from. Being in modern day Iran which is alcohol free (except maybe in private homes) you will not see a drop to drink. Love Iran but we are hanging for the next destination. Thanks guys

Looks like you are having a great experience. Hope Scott is feeling better soon. It is always interesting when you struggle with the communication. Some things are universal. Enjoying your adventure in Iran.

Thanks Traudy we are now both on the mend (after I gave Shelley a good dose). My next adventure will be to get a haircut, and when I do we will post photos.

just fyi those black posters on the wall are not "Political Posters" , they are condolence messages for someone who is dead .

Oooops
The problem with assuming things. The posters went up shortly before the election and stupid us assumed they had something to do with it. Thanks so much for the information we will remove the photo.
