another WE-trip - this time to west-AZ province!
it seems we are making our norouz-holidays step by step in advance!! hehe... the kids proposed to go again for 2 days this time west and so we did. it was again a great weather and so we enjoyed to be on the road. we went via the new bridge over urmia-lake to urumieh - btw - the 2nd line was opened in the meantime!! the first one opened in nov. 2oo8 -, naghade, piranshahr..

the border in front, ohhh... surrounded of snowy mountains.. we were looking for a place to eat, not easy in such a small town to eat smth.





finally we found a kebab shop and then we went straight to the one & only hotel they had there! two stars - oh my god... it was clean, ok, but honestly, the stars for what purpose pls??? so we slept very early. but on the other side I got up around 3 AM.. because of my catchcould......

for the other morning they announced to have breakfast at 8.15... we arrived later and there wasn't any stuff..... they told us they had no bread.. ok, no prob, we had bread ourselves, but we weren't in the mood to ask more and so we went out - no breakfast everywhere. finally we reached the kebab shop from yesterday eve.. and he was so compassionate and ordered for the poor touris some omelett from one of his friends and they made even fresh bread for us!!



In the meantime ipue got really thrilled about so many kurdish people.. honestly it IS a kurdish town.. she could spent there days and days by taking photos of all the people traditionell clothed, specially the men...... finally she brought some *paparazzi-pics* with her... *smile*

after breakfast we went to bazar!! a famous bazar with lots of foreign stuff, who knows from where..!!?!? and often for quite reasonable prices.. so we bought this and that.. and at 12 we left!!!!!!!!



we had the idea to go to *tepe hasanlou*!!! a famous excavation site from 6.ooo years BC ago!! this is the place where a lot of the great golden stuff you could see in IR museums, specially in tehran archaeology museum, was found!!! it was nice we had seen there unexpectly!!!

as there wasn't any place for a reasonable meal, we eat some boiled eggs with bread, fruits, nuts and didn't lost time for looking for a restaurant. and so we arrived at 6 PM at home!!!!!*T*I*R*E*D*!!!!!!
