Connection aint very fast, but ill try to update as much as I can. The plane left 1hour late barcelona as they had closed the runway and we missed our departure slot. The guy sitting next to me, old american had an absolute need to mainatin conversation which suddenly ended when he said "where are you traveling too?" and i was eating so I simply pointed to the book in my lap - Lonely Planet Guide Iran. After a while he restarted and wished me a good trip. I walked from terminal A to B crossing the famous Frankfurt tunnel. Famous to me as I crossed it a bunch of times running when I used to do Barcelona Buenos Aires via Frankfurt...Then there was the waiting, it was clear that was the waiting area for the people on the flight to Tehran... the dress code said it all. This old woman started talking to me and the first thing she said was "come to my home" hehehe. So yeah, got on the plane and about 1h before landing my legs started to hurt. thanks god it was a "short flight".. the toilet on the A340 where downstairs! yes there was a downstairs! with an area for a 10 people waiting room and 6 toilets I had never seen this...
Before landing we were reminded that photography was not allowed in Tehran international airport. And later also reminded that by law all woman decending of the plane had to use a headscarf.
That being done I started queuing in a never ending line to pass passport control, it was sooo warm... and then i realized there were only two persons in the queue of FOREIGNERS. So i wente there and this woman told me she had her family waiting they were iranians but with american passports she was going to try and go...she passed with 4 passports. Then when it was my turn... the KLM pilot appeared and made the 12 people in his crew go infront of me :s A german guy started shouting YEAH YEAH the dutch alway before, always extra rights, just make us wait longer. THe dutch the dutch. He applauded them and made a never ending scene. After a long wait I went through. I grabbed my luggage, changed my money (got milions) and then had to pas my luggage through a scanner. Then I walked out and Zainab came to pick me up :)it was great!! it was so late at night there was NO ONE in the streets...took us a while to find the hotel but it went just fine!!!!! Knocked on the door they opened the hotel and I got my room!
Ill upload pictures when back home.
