<em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Day 44 Wednesday 2nd March 2016 Another day in Iran, another town, another taxi. Heading off to Kashan today by bus, but as we got the taxi to the bus terminal the driver tried to talk us into letting him drive us to Kashan for US$88 including a bit of sightseeing but we opted for the much cheaper bus.

'flat bloody bread'...
How much are you guys going to enjoy that first brekkie of leavened bread and a good coffee?? :) Tabriz looks bleak, hope your time in back in Tehran is warmer in every sense of the word.

Finally get coffee
It is starting to show that we have spent too long in the one region. In a different town this morning and finally got a coffee, Yippppeeee.

The Silver Fox
What a great story...you just have to chuckle at these things. Often times people want their picture taken with Dave because he is tall. Mis-guided by the lonely planet...that happens. When we made it to Switzerland yesterday we met up for dinner with a fellow travel blogger. She wanted to know where we wanted to go for dinner and we said anywhere except Middle Eastern food....a month was enough for us. So glad the guy from the pharmacy took time to help Scott....don't need any big issues on this trip. We will continue to follow your adventure.

Is there coffee in Tehran?
Lets hope so :), Those troglodyte houses sort of remind me of earth ships, you know, made from recycled materials and earth connected more than some. I sort of like them. I love it when it snows unexpectedly, as long as I'm prepared, that doesn't make sense haha. Hope you feel better soon Scotty and get that coffee, dang!. I'm loving all these interesting places your visiting. I found the caffeine free little jibes in this entry hilarious. Thanks for that!

Did someone say coffee???
Yes finally got some coffee and will soon have a beer in my hand, sounds like nirvana but it is only Bishkek. Thanks Traudy
