We're moving!

This whole site is being moved to a shiny new server - as are all my sites, in fact. Apologies for the bumpy road ahead, but at the end of that road things will become fast and smooth.

Once the site at the new server is ready, this message will automatically disappear!

Meanwhile, you can see how the move is progressing at the status page.

  Saturday 2004-05-29 - Hamedān, Iran

Mirror, mirror on the wall … no, everywhere!

The hotel in Hamedān is inconveniently far outside the town center - and there’s a big thunderstorm when we arrive. Carla and I decide to stay in the hotel; inside practically every surface except the floor is covered in faceted mirrors, with glaring white lights in-between: truly dazzling. I attempt to catch the glitter in a photograph — it’s hard to know how that will turn out: glaring lights tend to confuse my camera’s light meter…

Another surprise: for the first time in Iran we see ladies behind the reception desk.
