Fun in the East


Iran collateral damage, originally uploaded by t7F London.

Never a dull moment at an event like The World Travel Market. Not least getting there, Excel is a lot further east than I remembered (past the Olympic site and keep going)

Favorite moments at the show? toss up between the Borat designed Kazakhstan tourist board stand and Iran's 'Land of Peace' beach holdall's -a must for my next JFK flight with MAXjet. But in the end we went for the set of postcards from the charming Iranian representatives. These not only extolled the virtues of skiing (!) on Iran's highest peak 'Damavand' but invited us to marvel at the glorious opium, er, poppy fields.
