around the world with ipuenktchen

today yashila_81 and lili_6789 proposed a day out to ipuenktchen & her hubby, and so they did, got up at 7, leaving at 8 AM - first stop at SOFIYAN, we took breakfast at the park; there were nobody else!!!!!

after breakfast a bit fitness :-)))))))))))))))))


it was nice!!!! then we turned to the other side of the road and went into *nowhere*!!!?! it was so interesting, as ipue told me the landscape and nature changed immediately, it seems her like a desert, a salt desert - well, we are not so far from the urmia lake (salt lake) and beside the dam there it looks like here to QUM TAPPEH!!!! and had you ever seen such a plain landscape without any mountains?????????????????? in IR it's soooooooooo rare!!!!!





the vegetation got more and more desert-like!! sand everywhere and 1 or 2 kind of special plants, only to be found in deserts... suddenly a crowd of large wild dogs!!!!! they worried about us.. and later some shephards and a large sheep flock!!!!!





then we made a turn to find the AMAND DAM not far from there!!!!! nearly EMPTY after 5 months without any rain!!!!!!!! but it was so beautiful there!! had you ever seen such a sky - great sunny weather, and so many ducks and geese!!!!! waiting to be feed with our bread... hehe....... they came from everywhere when they noticed us!!!!!!!!!




ist das nicht ein traumwetter??!!?! und dabei hatte es die ganze nacht geregnet!!! das ist halt der grund, dass maenne nicht im herbst/ winter nach DE moechte... sowas fehlt ihm dann.......





back to town yashila_81 and lili_6789 would like to see smth of TASUA, one of the mourning days with special programme to remember the martyrdom of hossein, the grandson of prophet mohammed. we went into the ancient part of tabriz and had a lot of *Tasua*!!! young or old, everybody went out to be with!!!! processions of black clothed kids, guys and men turning in a special way and lots of them with drums!!



ppl who had a vow have different give-aways - so we first each of us had a hot chocolate, muffins beside!!!! later we all had a delicious stew!! and also yashila_81 got successfull to find a meal of rice and kebab!!! and ppl like this so much!!!!!!!! even there are many ppl don't prepare lunch in these days but going out to earn from the vows! :-)





later we noticed in the street beside of us two dromedaries, even *clothed* in green & black! ppl gave them money!!?! - then we got pretty tired and in the afternoon we had been back home!!! it was a remarkable day!! and always fun to be with the kids!!! thank you, dear yashila_81 & lili_6789!!!!!!!!!!
