Into Iran: Day Twenty One

---

Today was a driving day, starting with us getting into our ridiculous tent dresses, crossing the border (better than we expected; we didn't even need our bags checked), and ending with us getting into Tabriz and pretty much crashing in the hotel room.

Iranian hotel rooms are nice; for some reason (something to do with saving face) we're staying in ridiculously nice hotels for the whole country, so yay for random social customs. We also stopped at a nice restaurant where we all ate ridiculous amounts of food, mine more ridiculous than other people's because I was in the rapidly shrinking healthy camp. The rice was good, the fired egg and chips were a harbinger for more to come (or the eggs were anyway; I wouldn't have minded the chips).
