I knew Kerman..had been there before..
nice bazaar...the people from Kerman..
lived far away from the politics of Tehran..
their regio is full or arid land..desert and barren..
it's on an altitude of over 1700m..bit cooler in summer..
I visited bazar e borg...which means big bazaar..
funny language Farsi..I learned a few sentences..
people always laughed..because probably I pronounced wrongly..
the usual masjeds(mosques)all present as well..
I don't recall where I stayed in Kerman..small hotel..
next day..i took a bus for Zahedan..to take that train..
we crossed the town of Bam..very old place..
it has some sort of an old castle..never visited it..
the city of Bam..got hit by an earthquake in 2003..

it got quite damaged,I believe..lots of people died as well..
so..reached the town of Zahedan..funny place..
i had to stay few days here..waiting for the train.
train to Quetta..waww..real adventure..
only went once a week via Mirjave-Taftan-Dalbandin etc..
in these days...every foreigner..had to rapport at local police..
they did not ask too many questions..they knew..
I was going to Pakistan..Zahedan was a smuggling town..
for drug traffic...and all kind of stuff..
booked a train ticket to Quetta...
and stayed 2 nights on some camping like place..
with barracks..where we slept..
finally..the train came...awww..I was glad..
to get away from this place Zahedan..
I will tell you curious peeps later on..about the trip..
