On the contrary, we had to go to Bushehr to get a flight to Rasht. The heat was unbearable. I've experienced high temperatures before in Pakistan and southeast Asia, but this was terrible. We arrived in Bushehr around one in the afternoon and on top of the heat, we couldn't find a place to stay. Apart from two domestic flights, we went everywhere by ground transportation.
Bus rides are very cheap by Western standards.
And I think we sat in every imaginable version of a Paykan, the Iranian national car. I don't think there are two identical cars in the whole country. During our trip we met a lot of people, some of them became really good friends. The hospitality of the Iranians was really overwhelming and they will be in our memories forever.
