At this point, I doubt if I could get past worrying about the batteries dying. ;-) Montie >>PESO: We visited the Zoroastrian Fire Temple in Yazd for a worship service. Ordinarily, non-Zoroastrians are not allowed in the room where the Victorious Fire (Khordeh Avesta) is located but we went with our friends from the cucumber farm and they talked us in. Everybody was very welcoming once we got inside. The rooms were very, very small and crowded so photography was pretty difficult. The fire itself is from 470 AD. Almost unbelievable!! http://tinamanley.photoshelter.com/gallery-image/Iran/G0000YmlbTddL96g/I0000Y3UKBocfwEk and hit previous for more. I'm still having problems with the lines. Caitlyn from PhotoShelter affirmed that is not a problem with my files but thinks the transmission might have some hiccups. She suggested I reload them all. Which I will get around to doing eventually! "The *Yazd Atash Behram*, also known as *Yazd Atash Kadeh*), is a temple in Yazd <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yazd>, to the west of Shiraz <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiraz> in Iran. It was built in 1934 and enshrines the Atash Bahram <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atash_Bahram>, meaning ?Victorious Fire?, dated to 470 AD. The sacred fire is installed in the temple behind an amber tinted glass enclosure. Only Zoroastrians are allowed to go to the sanctum area of the fire." C&C greatly appreciated.
