By Doug Burnett Travelogue Dates April 10th, Isafan - I felt that incredible rush of excitement that comes with visiting a new place. April 11th, Isafan - You go out in Iran and you never know who will bring you back. April 12th, Isafan - I was sad to go and would have been happy to spend a few more days in Isfahan. I wasn't alone after all. April 15th, Bam - Bam is an abandoned mud brick city.
Visitors rave about the solitude of the place.
April 16th, Shiraz - Somehow I found the whole thing frightening, this intense religious feeling is so alien to me. April 17th, Shiraz - I told the owner I was from America. He was delighted and said he would give me a good price if I would do him a favor. April 18th, Shiraz - One of the main reasons travelers come Shiraz is to visit Persepolis, the capital of the Persian Empire. April 20th, Tehran - Iran is a gem.
