Well I got the call to go to work, so the trip will sadly be cut short, we will leave in 1 day to head for Armenia over a period of a week before storing the rig. But the adventure shall continue.

But to make the most of our time we still have I stripped the roof down as we were staying in Shiraz, and there is no point having the roof load for an in town hotel as all the sightseeing is a nightmare dealing with roof height issues.

Here is a couple photos from the road:

The cat out and about doing his thing: I will add since some people skitz out, we just stopped here for lunch, that is not our fire pit, and anyone who has traveled Iran can back up the fact that the locals basically refuse to reuse a firepit so the area ends up scattered with them sadly..

And of course, mandatory car photo:

We tour Odessa, enjoying Pork ribs and way to many drinks. Just how a trip should be.

I'm not so surprised now... Now Odessa, unfortunately, is not the most peaceful place. :(

OK, if suddenly your route will pass through Russia, let me know!.. :)

I think I could recommend some interesting places to visit and maybe we could even find some time to meet!.. :)

We hit up some old areas from the past and then go to a campsite where we may have had a bit to much to drink.
