Our truck is fixed (we hope) and it is time to get back on the road. Today we headed towards Esfahan about 450 km away. We maintained a moderate pace and checked the wheel hubs a number of times to make sure that the newly repaired hub was not getting hot. The good news - it seemed OK.

It was noticeable today that the weather had moderated during our time in Shiraz and autumn is here for sure. Much of the day the temperature was in the high 50°F.

The road was good all day, 4 lane divided freeway and we made good time not withstanding our moderate pace.


About 70 km from Esfahan we simply found a road side parking area and stopped. We did not want to brave Esfahan traffic with dark approaching.
