Day 28 leaving Iran

This day saw us leaving Iran for Turkey.
The welcome from the Iranian people was the most enthusastic we've seen for the trip.
On the way to the border the local farmer were harvesting sunflowers by hand and drying the seeds on the edge of the road. Most of the farming in Iran is still all hand harvesting with some of the thrashing being done by small machines.
When we entered Turkey Mount Ararat was on the right but the top was not visiable for cloud.
As we got near the end of the day all the farmers where along the road selling there crops, like all the countries we have traveled through. In turkey we saw the biggest Cabbages ever about 400 to 500mm across.
