from there we went to the next quarter to see a pottery exhibition and there had been so great work pieces, hand thrown, in the showroom!!! the artist gave a nice gift to ipue - here you can see me with the gift..........

love, Joris

today, mom, ipue's i-net wasn't working and so we had time enough  to make other things and we finished the granny squares you read about a few days before...........

woooow, mom, our first spring day today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yashila_81 & lili_6789 picked us up to go to the garden beside gurigol-lake on the tehran road, 25 km...

HUGE CONGRATS TO you, dear MOM, and to all female followers of this blog for the
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN's DAY 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hellooooooo, dear mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


what's up?????????? we had been out in the eve..... btw it was raining!!!
Ipue's hubby had invited at the 5-star-hotel at shahgoli park for the revolving restaurant!!!!!!!! we had much fun, nice atmospher and yummy dinner!!! there had been a lot of reasons to have fun together!!
1) yashila_81's master thesis
2) 50th anniversary of ipue & her hubby
3) the new baby in advance
4) yashila_81's new job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and so they had a lot of toasts and gifts and so on.... and also the print version of his master thesis!!!!!!! *smiiiiile*

at first pls have a look on a day view of the hotel!

hi, mom & dad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
today ipue proposed a shopping tour and so we did!!!!
boah... what a crowd!!!! like in DE in the last days before X-mas!!!!!?!?! but nevertheless we did our tour and here and there we saw interesting things - for instance the protestant church, in it's yard had been the elementary school of son1 of ipue!!! in front of the church yard is now a new street with an entrance (one you may see on the pic!) at both sides for an underground multi-storey car park!!! when you come like ipue & her hubby not that often downtown you can find every time such *new things*!!! ;-)

next while looking for a dyeing mill we saw the ark, the ancient citadel, one of the oldest places of tabriz from 1.000 years ago, from backside.  and in the meantime we got hungry and spedially we TVs started to moan....... so we entered *Pizza2000* and each of us had a yummy food!! spaghetti with goulash and pizza with tongue and cheese!!

next we went to a famous nutshop and bought our nuts for the new year's visitors, the same some pastry..... ipue choose always a kind of pastry which is easy to keep for longer time, a wafer with a yummy peanut creme!

we asked some books from different bookshops, but didn't found what we were looking for... and so we have to go again downtown on SAT or SUN,.... because we need this as a gift!!! so pls stay tuned! bye for now!!!!!

I miss you - lots of kisses, love, JORIS

hey, dear mom!!!!

puuuuh... nice sunshine, mom, but a strong spring storm!!! and  I understand, it was so difficult for my grandmom ipuenktchen nobody fo us got lost... specially Possy & Crossy both together with a weight of only 25 g could be taken with by the wind....................

but all's well that ends well. and we arrived back home safely!!!!!!!!!!!!

first we passed the Union Bridge while going downtown!

this time we found a path to see the ancient citadel from nearby, they are still working there and the wall around was destroyed in the meantime! to was after nearly 30 years ago for the first time ppl could see it from nearby again!

from there we went by taxi to the new built mansour cross rd with its silk road tower and the carpet mosaic downstairs in the yard!! boah, mom, such a large and beautiful mosaic!!!!
and from there we took the bus straight home and everybody got really tired!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish you could be here, dear mom!! miss you & kiss you, mom!!

hi, dear mom and helloooooooooooo, everybodyyyyyyy and a special hello to K-town!!!!!!!!!

ipuenktchen had a surprise for us, we had dinner very soon coz at 8.15 PM local time in DE we promised to keep our fingers crossed for the football match 1. FC KAISERSLAUTERN ./. 1. FC KOELN!!!!! 2nd bundesliga... it's because of our dear BETZE, a HUUUUUUGE FAN of 1. FCK, and ipue has a fan-shawl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Possy & Crossy met even their fain-tricot and fan-shawl, too!! and because it was a very important match we were ready in time in front of the live-ticker!!! boah, it's sooooooooooooooooooooooo exciting.. now it's the break between first and second half with a result of 0:0.......!?!!

pls stay tuned, we had to be back now at the live-ticker!! see you soon!!! and hopefully with GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!?!

EDIT::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
nooooo....... we are deeply sorry.... perhaps our fingers are too small to get a result when keeping crossed!!!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!??!?!?!?!? coz they finished the second half still with 0:0 when the final whistle was coming and the points are gone to cologne................. :-((((((((

hellooooooooo, dear mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sooooooooooo excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so we had been with friends and we jumped over the fire!!!!!!!!!!!!
that was so much fun. and they had some fireworks, too!!! and later a yummy dinner and very great traditional live-music!!!! we had a great eve. 

from there I went home together with my mom & dad because tomorrow we'll go for a little holidays.. stay tuned, dear friends!!!!

hey dear mom & dad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
as you are leaving today for ardabil and you like to take me with you, for sure I was so thrilled about!! but as I didn't agree to come alone I had spoken with dear little ZIZZI_Zebra to come with me, I got so happy she agreed and immediately we had a meetup with ipuenktchen  to get the allowance for her to go with me!!!!!!!!!! it was so kind of ipue, even when we have NEW YEAR holidays and all moms and dads like to be with their kids......

thank you, dear ipue, and also for the great time I had at your's!!!!!!!!!

****SALE NO MOBARAK****HAPPY NEW IR YEAR****

hellooooooooo, everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got really thrilled when I understood at the moment of the turning of the year from 1392 into 1393 in the eve at about 8.30 PM we'll be at my grandmom's together with my buddy F.M.Bear!!! it was so mystic and full of harmony for me, when we admired the HAFTSIN there!!! and
even the little niece of lili_6789 was playing with us!!!!!

pls have a look at our pics!!!

at our 3rd day in rasht and after so long chilling our hosts decided to bring us out for a great trip around rasht, the capital of gilan province!!!! we went at an open air museum!! what a great idea!!!! country ppl from gilan dedicated their traditional wooden farm houses to the IR heritage - and they removed it from its place to rebuilt it again at the large museum area!!!!! and the next human generations will be able to see in which way their ancestors were living!!!! they also were showing lots of their handicrafts!!!!! and you can buy bread and other things, just made there!!! you cannot imagine how interesting this had been for all of us!!!!!

hi, everybodyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!

today another the same interesting trip to a village area high in the mountains - for sure in northern iran they are not that mountains but better to say hills, covered by beautiful forest!!

when arrived at the recreation area we took a suite for some hours in a kind of motel and started to cook smth for lunch - means we were cooking for our hosts!! when coming outside again the fog got much more, nearly we wouldn't be able to drive the car down the hills....
how exciting!!! pls have a look!!!!!

hi, mom & dad, thank you so much for the great trip we had together!!!!

the joy to meet my buddies again was gigantic; when we arrived back home from northern iran, rasht, and ardabil - we went straight to ipue's, because everybody eagerly would like to see his buddy again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and so we had a great eve, chatting and looking at the pics and to hear what ipue has done in the meantime!!!!!

ey gosh, and at the end of the eve we all had a jump into the washing mashine.. as ipue told us, we'll have guests on FRI and we had to be clean again!!! mom, how RUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we all were crying, but ipue shut the door and the water comes on and we were thinking it was the last day of our life, honestly, mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well, now we are clean and ipue agrees.....
and this is where we are NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hanging on the line...

hi, mom & dad,
as it is the main goal of IR ppl to visit each other during the new year holidays, today it was ipue's turn to wait for guests!! and we were very excited what will happen....  the days before we saw she was busy to get nuts and cookies/ pastry and yesterday her son2 went to buy lots of fruits... and so on............... and when ppl are arriving you have to serve first the tea and cookies or pastry. later nuts and other sweets, and at last the fruits!!!!!!!! this is difficult coz they all don't arrive at the same time.. and you must not forget to whom you served whatever....



and, my dear followers, I'll let you know, tomorrow when yashila_81 and lili_6789 will go back home I decided to come with them because I need a break and I missed home so much, and I'd like to have a look around if my toys and everything is still at its place!!!!?!?!
