Light show
We had a spectacular light show last night on the island. What I mean by light show is lots and lots of lightning. Yes, we had a thunder and lightning storm brew up out of no where. It also rained quite heavily for an hour or so. It didn’t cause any damage or power outages or anything but it was fun to watch.
I have been eating out a little more this past week. This one place I ate recently at was called King’s Burger and had a logo that looked almost exactly like this one. It also was insanely expensive relative to other restaurants here. For example, I got a simple burger with small fries and a small drink (basically their combo deal) for 70,000 IR which is about $7.50.
I think I have over done my stay here on the island and can’t wait to leave for Tehran this Thursday afternoon. Nothing against this island but a man can only take so much humidity and an endless supply of shopping malls.
For fun, here are some other expenses converted to US Dollars:
Hair cut with beard trim: 35,000 (5000 for tip) IR= $3.75
Taxi fair (flat fee that will take you to almost anywhere on the island): 8000 IR = $0.85
Lunch at a 5 star hotel (price includes drink, appetizer, main course, desert and tip): 175,000 IR = $18.80 per person

Thats so crazy about the lighting, I would so love to see something like that. Is is just like what you see in picture and posters? Like the whole sky lit up? The price differences are crazy too. Ali you and come back like a ganster for half the cost. lol
Yep, they would light up the whole sky.
dang, i wish haircuts were that cheap here in the states, i would get one once a month!
