Day 2: Rain in Shiraz

Day 2: Rain in Shiraz

March 25, 2017 Posted by Daniel Moser Iran, Journals

When you hear about Iran, you probably think about heat and dry desert. However, today we experienced the complete opposite. It was basically pouring down all day, it was windy and chilly, and for those who have read my previous posts, I still don’t have a rain jacket as it is in Doha together with most of my luggage. So we restricted sightseeing to the Karim Khan Citadel, an old fortress. The rest of the day we either spent with our hosts Masoud and Zahra or we ran for some errands such as exchanging money or getting our SIM-cards to work.

The good news I just got from the airport: my luggage should be on the way to Shiraz and I can pick up my things tomorrow morning when we will hit the road towards Persepolis. Probably still in the rain, but it should get better towards the afternoon. And this will also mean that I might not be able to post every single day on this page.
