Vacation Anyone?









I dream of Arizona, maybe Nevada, sometimes New England. Europe? Sure. Now a new destination should be considered and may be offered by your friendly travel agent. Why? For $20, if you are American. Sorry, Canada and other nations are a $10 bonus. Where is this beautiful location? None other than Iran. The premium payment is to show that Iran is in dispute with George W. Bush, not the common US citizen. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad even wants direct flights resumed between the US and Iran that were halted over 25 years ago after Iranian militants stormed the American Embassy in Tehran, coincidently Nov 4, 1979. What benefits are there in visiting Iran labeled as an American. Iran sits squarely between Afghanistan and Iraq. Nightly fireworks that will rival the Fourth of July. You can visit the 30 provinces even though the country is roughly the size of Alaska. Access is easy as Iran boasts 129 airports with paved runways and 192 with unpaved runways.
It may be that Iran is more marketable labeled as its former name Persia. Sounds soft and friendly and most American students wouldn't connect the two. For your viewing pleasure, photos that will refute what you think Iran really looks like. Maybe I will check the travel sites.

I would love to take a trip to Iran. Being a milk white honky in an extremist Islamic state... I mean what could be better? I am surprised that people aren't all over Iran like Homer Simpson on a pork chop!
