Tehran (Iran) to Bandar Abbas (Iran)

Distance: 1338Km by train
Departure : 22/04/09
Arrival : 23/04/09

Also our leaving wasn't without pains, till the end Teheran was impossible for us and once on the train we told ourself we'll never come back here! The day in wich we got our visas we had to go and come back to the Indian Embassy two times from Tajrich Square at 6pm we were back home with our passports ready waiting for Maziar coming to take the keys. At half past seven we left Tajrich on a bus for the railway station. We got there just before the departure but there wasn't any availability and we had to sleep at the station waiting for the train next day at noon.

The day after we got a train with a jung family a guy and an old woman and after a long way we got to Bandar Abbas. The way is more than amazing, it's like to cross the desert and some desolate old villages towards the south, everything was more and more yellow and the sad immagine of Teheran was already far...

Danial cames to picked us up at the desert railwys station of Bandar Abbas. In his house we have been very well nourished with iranian food for 3 days by his great mother and we had interesting and funny conversations with is father. With him and his brother we have been all around, we meet their friends and we enjoyed a lot our fast but intense staing together.

Danial left us at the airport and wait until we left.
