Now is as good a time as any to begin thinking about my next trip.
There are about a dozen potential plans sitting quietly in the back of my head - it's a matter of deciding which are the most desirable/practical/logical.
Kilimanjaro was a good example of all three. At my advancing age I seriously need to consider which places require greater physical stamina than others - and do them first! The Trans - Siberian rail trip has been on the back burner for years - but lets face it - I could be loaded onto a train in a hospital bed in my 90's to do a 10 day rail trip.
But I think I have settled on the next choice: Iran.
These images helped convince me!

history (palace of persepolis)
islamic architecture (nasir-ol-molk_mosque shiraz)
mountains to climb (mt. damarvand)
Well - the idea has been planted - let's see what this year brings!

Hey, way to go by the look of the stimulous material, guess you'll be back at the old factory in 09 at least for a bit!
