1st day - SUNDAY 10th oct 2010

we arrived at 4 AM at ipue's home, sending a fast mail home to her family together with the first pic, went to sleep, breakfast and again to sleep and relax and so on, after this exciting trip - finally we went out downtown at 3 PM by bus....

- bustane khagani, a nice park beside the blue mosque
- blue mosque and POSTCARD SHOPPING for sure - hehe..
- ark, the ancient citadel
- iranian handicraft shop

in the blue mosque was the great moment, dear isagv opened her backpack and our new guest appeared.. travelling toy from FI *H*E*N*R*I*K* fom dear HUPPU68, and isagv said goodbye to him and ipue got his new godmother.. :-)

WELCOME TO TABRIZ - dear HENRIK!!!!!!!!!!!!



there were football fans in the city, even with vuzuelas... :-O ipue haven't seen before!!! honouring dear isagv with her son1 - the upcoming football star!!!!!!!!?!?! - the city was crowded, the traffic awfull and so we went home again to have a little lunch together.


2nd day - MONDAY 11th oct 2010

we had no breakfast only getting up in time and be ready, as we had a rendezvous with some of ipue's friends to have breakfast-picnic in the park EL GOLY nearby!



it was so nice, the weather still fine - and dear isagv couldn't remember when she took part in a picnic last time!!!!???!?!

while we were sitting there, it got colder, the sun disappeared and it got a windy weather!! and in the afternoon even it was raining - AUTUMN without any doubt!!!!!!!!!!!!

for the afternoon we had announced our
3rd INTERNATIONAL TABRIZ POSTCROSSING MEETING
and we had (in alphabetical order)

- ISAGV
- IPUENKTCHEN
- MISSLONDON
later:
- lili_6789
- yashila_81

and for sure
- EMMA
- HENRIK
- POSSY & CROSSY
- and the other *fluffy pens* from FI

unfortunately dear lili_6789 couldn't take part in time as she had a look at her university and the class had been started and she was obliged to stay there - what a pity, and so she was late - the same yashila_81, he stood at his office.. :-(((((((((((((
but we three girls had fun as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



and tomorrow we'll bring bunches & bunches of cards to the postoffice!!!

we are really THRILLED!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)))))))))
waiting for dear ISAGVVVVVVVVVVV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and today our i-net wasn't working in the afternoon and evening...
it was AWFULL.......

and I'm worrying perhaps getting tired or busy in i-net or anything else - and perhaps forget to go to pick her up from the airport at
2 AM.............!?!?!?!?!?!!!?!?!!

today we had another guest, too.. from paris, speaking fluently german and so dear isagv will be comfortable with her sharing our guest-flat for one or two nights... :-)))

Ipue thanks each of you so muchhhhhhhh!!!!!!! :-)

what a beautiful day in fall!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!?!!
today we had our friends in our garden - it was our gathering and the turn of ipue's best friend..



hurrayyy - nothing to do - only to be ready and enjoy the day!!



as usual ipue's friend prepared a yummy meal and we had a lot of fun together!!! they left a bit early and after everybody's catnap son2 invited to go (by car!!) to the lake nearby named gurigol!!



what a beautiful area!! and how interesting with so many rare birds...



some years ago we even met there some flamingos!!! it was a pity that we know nothing about birds to know their names and could have a look in the books or i-net...... however it was gorgeous and a great day!!



in the next pic you may see after this long + hot summer how small got the lake.. the water is far and so less and in front you may see the morass - quite dried.. :-(( let's hope for a lot of snow in winter and the lake will get hopefully its former size....!!!



we are hoping instantly the weather will stay so nice, because after 1o days we'll have our special guest from germany!!!!!!! :-))))))))))
