While the park's naming issue got repealed, we wanted to start our journey from the symbol of Tehran so we adjusted our schedule on 10am from the beginning of karimi's street (we were forced to choos this street because of some reparations in azadi square) and we informed people who were to be in the ceremony.
At night we couldn’t sleep and in the whole night we were thinking about a lot of issues.

Of course some nights we have gone to the house of Mahmoud’s mother. In Iran family is very important. Parents are worried about their children always!!! Sometimes they forget their life and only think to their chickens! I don’t know it’s good and normal or no, because we didn’t have any children. My mother is about 73 years old but my mother in low is younger, 58 years old.
I have only one brother who is studying in Italy but my husband has 2 sisters and 2 brothers and lots of grandsons and granddaughters!!! Always we encourage them to travel, but in Iran traveling round the world (in hard method) isn’t common. People prefer to go by airplane or train, comfortable and reach! However our families are a little bit worried about our trip, robbers and dangerous roads or diseases, but they don’t know this is life, the best choice of living.
Yet we couldn’t buy some of special equipments for this trip and we hope to provide them in this remainder of the time.
Mr.Ramezani, director of Roshd institute is very industrious and he is trying to obtain more helps from other companies and organizations. His office is working fulltime in our project and their engineers and experts are examinating our journey. They have made box’s labels of motorcycle and these days we will fix them on it. 
These days we are very busy. Not also we should terminate final tunings of motorcycle, but also should attend in some sessions. Arranging program for 17 July in the park where our trip will start from there and in that day, Tehran’s mayor will attend to speech and nominate this park by the name of Mewlana. Municipality will make a statue from Mewlana to install there along his poems:
Show your face, for the orchard and rose garden are my desire, open your lips for abundant sugar is my desire,
Sun of beauty, come out of the cloud, for that glittering, glowing countenance is my desire.
Last night the Sheikh (mystic) went all about the city, lamp in hand, crying,” I am weary of beast and devil, a man is my desire”.
They said,” he is not to be found, we too have searched”, he answered,” he who is not to be found is my desire”!

Mr.Shajarian (Iranian traditional singer), Dr.Taha Hashemi (director of researching department in cultural organization), Dr. Chitsaz and Dr. Mousavi (Heritage and cultural organization), Dr.Shahkhalili and Dr. Ebrahimshah (Mewlana foundation), Dr.Motlagh and Dr. Mousavi Bojnurdi (Islamic Encyclopedia center),Dr.Iraj Afshar,etc.
Because our movement in Tehran (capital of our country and our city), will start from west of this city, we have contacted to municipality of that region (no.9) and they have offered us to start our trip from a park near Azadi sq. (famous tower in Tehran). As you know we announced before that we will start our journey in April 2007, but because of great goal and of course good results in the future of our trip, we decided to have better programming and therefore it took long. So our exact date and accurate date of start is: 17 July
In this date we will move from Tehran, then after 4 hours we will be in Zanjan (our route in Iran is to west to go Turkey). In Zanjan we will stay one night and after interview in the local TV. And a meeting with people in this city we will go to Tabriz. In the road between these two cities, there is Soltanieh Dome: interesting, marvelous and the highest brick dome in the world. If we had time we will go there. And another historical place in this road is Chalapi Oqli house, the house of MewLana’s grandchild.
After passing of Tabriz city, we will move to the Khoy city, the city of Great Shams. Shams Tabrizi was a great mystic man and Mewlana’s teacher. Distance between Khoy and border of Turkey is about 170 km and finally after 950 km from our city, we will leave our nice country towards new life.

Now our friends in Roshd institute (a researching development institute) are trying to print and prepare it as Iranian traditional form with a picture of Mewlana in the book’s cover.
One of the poets in a literary association” Parvin Etesami” called us and invited to attend between them to introduce our goals and our motto: in the search of humanity.
We went there and had a speech for the people. Parvin Etesami is one of the famous women who have composed beautiful poems.
These nights, we always read poems of Mewlana to know him more than before. Read and enjoy with us now :( translated from Farsi to English by Nicholson Raymond 1868-1945)

Though the whole world is full of thorns, the heart of the lover is wholly a rose bower,
And though heaven’s wheel is idle and ineffective, the world of lovers is fully employed,
Let all other men are sorrowful, yet the lover’s soul will be gay and happy and sprightly,
The wine of lovers bubbles up from their breast; love’s companion is in the inmost secrets.
Be a ride of love, and fear not the way, for love’s steed is swift of pace,
With a single bound it brings you to the abode, even though the road is not even.

During this week, we were preparing invitation cards, banners, boxes’ labels, inviting famous people to speech in our ceremony, programming to performance of traditional music, etc. 
When we were finding a suitable “AMPHITHEATER” for our goal to visit our family or friends even famous men of organizations, who helped us, we visited Dr.Fereyduni. He is master of Negar conferences center. He
And his colleagues offered us to perform our ceremony there and of course without any paying money! It was a wonderful opportunity in our condition and we accepted it gladly. Thank you Dr.Fereyduni, our kind friend!
I remember a poem by my teacher” Mewlana”:
In this earth, in this earth
In this holy field
Don’t plant except love and amour!

I and my husband have a speech there to introduce our goals and our travel. Besides of the conference, there is an exhibition and they will show the films. One of those was about our travel to the "Silk Road' and another attractive film was about a beautiful island in south of Iran (Qeshm) in the Persian Golf. 
  
After holding of conference, we were tired and decided to have a rest at home and handle some personal working. My brother is studying in Art University (statue) in Italy, Urbino city in the north of this country. In this trip, we will travel there to visit him (after 4 years). He is 29 years old and a professional artist, modern man. So we had an e-mail to connect him.
One of our best friends, who work in TV, came in our home and then we went to the market to buy a professional camera. In Tehran or most of big cities, there are big markets for electronic devises. Some of them made by China and most of them, unfortunately, don't have a high quality!! But Japan's productions are different. Our camera costs about 2800 Euro and its 3CCD, Dvcam. Of course, in this situation, it's very expensive for us, but we have to!!!! We want to have a valuable trip and get good films…but we hope not to rob it duration the trip!!!
 
We hope to visit in Portugal, Great writer" Jose Saramago", therefore we bought a new book of him and now we are studying it, named " Again rushing of death".

One of the famous media in Iran, " Moje", have broadcasted a good new of our travel. We hope to start from Tehran in 10 June 2007 and departure of our nice country is about 20 June 2007. The first country is Turkey, and we will enter to Europe (Greece) 5 JULY 2007. (If God willing!)

He and his colleagues were very kind. We think that we should expand cultural activities and in this case we can cooperate with them. Also we have another session with two of university's professors, Dr. Soleymani, Dr. Chegini. They had some suggestions to us in spiritual morality and how we can connect to the nature and God, deeply. 
Tonight, I am looking at sky and whispering one of the best poems of Great "George Harrison":
When you've seen beyond yourself
Then you may find
Peace of mind is waiting there,
And the time will come when you see

When we did our trip to the “Silk Road”, we have done researches about cultures and religions in those countries where in old time, they were parts of Iran. We talked about our experiences and transferred our knowledge. We examined Affections of Persian culture to other societies in that time. We had seen statue of lions in the Forbidden City, China and our friend (Mr. Farhangi) explained to us that they were gifts of Iranian kings to the Chinese kings. Lion was one of the Persian’s symbols to show power.
Publishing of “in 800 days” book, was one of our working in this week. Our pictures, goals, letters, pass of Silk Road, etc. are in this book to introduce our movement.
After weeks, we decided to have a rest. One of our friends lives in the city beside of Caspian Sea, Amol. There are beautiful forests, jungles, original nature. We enjoyed and obtained energy of this situation. 
Nature
Nature is beautiful
 love it or hate it
nature is something to love
nature is god's gift to us
Nature

Nature we love 
water and feed nature
Nature water's and feed's us
god gave us nature
we can’t live with out it

I know nature
Nature is beautiful
Nature is about the earth
nature has flower’s and weed's
weed's or flower's nature is us

One of them has lots of young fans and sportsmen (channel 3). They invited us for a live program to introduce our movement.
We accepted it gladly! It was performed successfully. We had another program in Iranian international channel (JAM-E-JAM), too.
For resistant against diseases and illnesses, we went to the Pastor institution to have some vaccinations. Eventually you know, in some parts of Africa and south of America, yellow fever and Malaria are rife. Finally, we received international vaccination cards.
My husband and I are trying to have a valuable trip so we need to concentrate on it deeply. These days, studying of some subjects who increase our level of mind is our first choice. Besides of it, every opportunity we prefer to listen to the music. One of our interests in the international music’s group is” Pink Floyd”. We live, rest and think with them. Camel, Beatels, Bobdylon, The Doors, Enigma, U2, Leonardo kohen, etc. we respect them and enjoy of their music. 
Now, we invite you to enjoy of “Dark side of the moon, Pink Floyd”:
 

Us and them
And after all we're only ordinary men
Me and you
God only knows it's not what we would choose to do
Forward he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
And the Generals sat, and the lines on the map
Moved from side to side
Black and blue
And who knows which is which and who is who
Up and Down
And in the end it's only round and round and round
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words?
The poster bearer cried
Listen son, said the man with the gun
There's room for you inside

Down and Out
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about
With, without
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about
Out of the way, it's a busy day
And I've got things on my mind
For want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died!

Because of his activities for a dialogue among civilizations, we respect him and will bring some parts of his speech about this subject in United Nations, New York, 5 September 2000. We hope you know Iranian ideas more than before and we think that expanding these cultural activities will help to have “Green world and blue life”… In dialogue among cultures and civilizations, great artists should undoubtedly get due recognition together with philosophers, scholars and theologians. For artists do not see the sea, mountain and forest as mere mines and sources of energy, oil and fuel. For the artist the sea embodies the waving music of a heavenly dance, the mountain is not just a mass of dirt and boulders, and the forest is not merely an inanimate collection of timber to cut and use. A world so thoroughly controlled by political, military and economic conditions today inevitably begets the ultimate devastation of the environment and the eradication of all spiritual, artistic and intuitive havens. To alleviate this crisis we need the magical touch and spell of the enchanted artist and the inspired poet to rescue life? Poets and artists engage in dialogue within and through the sacred language of spirit and morality. That language has remained safe from the poisonous winds of time.

Let us hope that enmity and oppression will end and that the clamour of love for truth, justice and human dignity will prevail. Let us hope that all human beings will sing along with Hafez of Shiraz, that divinely inspired spirit, that:
"No ineffable clamour reverberates in the grand heavenly dome more sweetly than the sound of love."

If might be boring for you, so we prefer to have a beautiful text and we hope to enjoy it, it is a modern poem from “Nima Yushij”. ....Among the poets who continued their experiments towards a radical modernization of Persian poetry, it was Nima Yushij (1896-1959) who took revolutionary measures to establish a new perspective in Persian poetry. He began writing poetry when he was a high school student.

It is night
A night of deep darkness.
On a branch of the old fig tree
A frog croaks without cease,
Predicting a storm, a deluge,
And I am drowned in fear.
 
It is night,
And with night the world seems
Like a corpse in the grave;
And in fear I say to myself:
"What if torrential rain falls everywhere?"
"What if the rain does not stop
Until the earth sinks into the water
Like a small boat?"
 
In this night of awful darkness
Who can say in what state we will be
When dawn breaks?
Will the morning light make?
The frightening face of the storm
Disappear?
In this way Persian Poetry, while maintaining its own independence, gained after a thousand years the unbounded freedom of prose. This was the real achievement of Nima Yushij and the reason for his being acclaimed as, the founder, or the father, of modern Persian poetry....

These days, the world needs that every body understands each others and tries to contact themselves. It isn’t important to have what religion, skin’s color, nationality etc. but also humanitarianism it’s important. Today’s, we are studying about other religions and people to visit them in the future. With receiving exiting e-mails, we understood that we caused a green waves in Persian families.

We decided to contact them and offer to have a special report of us. They have contacted us today and we had had a successful report today. This program is named” family’s image” 
And have lots of fans in Tehran and also other cities in Iran. Mr.Milani is a very experienced announcer and we went to a natural park”Chitgar” in west of Tehran for cinematography. The weather gets hot, gradually and it’s a chance to cycling for us.

In communication of our activity for “Mewlana”, we are searching about news and other Groups who are interested in Mewlana. We hope to connect them to have a good output of our journey. one of these cultural Groups is “Mewlana House” in U.S (I have written about them before), today we have sent an e-mail to Mr. Mehdi Meygani”, one of the active members, after a phone call, and he is very cultural man and Mewlana’s infatuated, so we hope to cooperate them in a good conditions to introduce” Mewlana’s peace” to the world. For the first step we will start our travel from Khoy city, where is Shams’s grave. Who is Mewlana’s wish (aim).

His brain works like a computer about motorcycle’s subjects. He has lots of Data about history, different types of motorcycles, inventors, etc. we decided to have an interview with him and ask him our questions. He came and patiently answered to us. Undoubtedly he is like a encyclopedia of motorcycle. He explained about “history of Harley Davidson”: William S.Harley and his school friend Arthur Davidson began experimenting with internal combustion engines at the turn of the country. Together in 1904, they started production and with the “Silent Gray Fellow”. 
And then he explained about the first motorcycle: Gottlieb Daimler, when he left the Deutz company, Daimler began to develop his own four-stroke engine at his workshop in Cannstatt and built the first motorcycle in 1885.He went on to build the successful, prestigious four-wheelers for which the name Daimler is best known.
Mr.Attaran has about 150 motor’s models and 250 car’s models (both are in small matures) in his house. Also he has some pieces of the second worth war‘s motorcycle in his private room. Now he is trying to gather old motorcycle for Iranian museum. We hope to be successful in his ambitions. Good luck!!

The Persians are believed to have lived close to the ancient Elamite city of Anshan, which is situated in the modern region of Fars, with Shiraz at its centre in Iran. The Achaemenid trace their ancestry to Achaemenes around 700 BC whose descendants became the rulers of Anshan. It is Cyrus II who turned this kingdom into an Empire becoming known as Cyrus the Great. If travel to my country, you will touch this history events nearly.     
In the evening, we talked to one of our best friend; he is Mr.Samari, a kind man. He came with his cheerful wife. He informed us about African countries and Arabian countries in the Middle East. His explanations were very useful.

In the future’s days, we will have a TV interview. This is the first time for Iran that an Iranian couple will have tour around the world and will pass from 5 continents by motorcycle, so it is an interesting report. To know Iran and our men of letter, we decide to bring some times beautiful poems of Iranians.
In the below you can read a famous poem from” Hafez”, who is one of the famous poets in Iran and in the world:


With songs of praise through the green glades they flit.  
A hundred dreams of Fancy's garnered store  
Assail me - Father Adam went astray  
Tempted by one poor grain of corn!  Wherefore  
Absolve and pardon him that turns away  
Though the soft breath of Truth reaches his ears,  
For two-and-seventy Jangling creeds he hears,  
And loud-voiced Fable calls him ceaselessly.  
That, that is not the flame of Love's true fire  
Which makes the torchlight shadows dance in rings,  
But where the radiance draws the moth's desire  
And send him fort with scorched and drooping wings.  
The heart of one who dwells retired shall break,  
Remembering a black mole and a red cheek,  
And his life ebb, sapped at its secret springs.  
Yet since the earliest time that man has sought   
To comb the locks of Speech, his goodly bride,   
Not one, like Hafiz, from the face of Thought   
Has torn the veil of Ignorance aside.

Today and other days in this week, we will talk to Dr. Mehdi Mousavi , assistant of  researching department in the Iranian cultural heritage and tourism organization, and Dr. Mehdi Chitsaz, archeologist and management of researches in this organization. The pivot of the discussion is Persian signs and effects in our path. There are most of Iranian earthenware, handicrafts which made by metals or glass, etc. if we will find and will gather them in useful collections, this case will help to other world travelers or students or any kind of  people who want knows. We will try!! You know, difficulties of this kind of travel are much and gathering of information need times. But we will try, we hope.

Because we will carry the pictures of Rumi in our motorcycle to respect Mewlana, so it is a brilliant suggestion to us. We will try to be there in September 2007. In this case, we will have an opportunity to introduce Rumi’s poems to the world. We hope to get American visa easily!!!

In Roshd Pajouhesh Iranian institution, we have passed off a successful session and have been decided to send our project to them about this eastern mystic and ask for any support. We hope that they not to hopeless us!! 
Mawlana who is also known as Rumi, was born on 30 September 1207 in Balkh in present day Afghanistan He died on 17 December 1273 in Konya in present day in Turkey. His doctrine advocates unlimited tolerance, positive reasoning, goodness, charity and awareness through love. To him and to his disciples all religions are more or less truth. Looking with the same eye on Muslim, Jew and Christian alike, his peaceful and tolerant teaching has appealed to men of all sects and creeds.

Every night we try to study before sleeping so now, we are studying a book from “Paolo kuiluo”, named “travel to the desert’s stars”. For our route and goals, this book is very useful. Some parts of this valuable book:
Be relaxed for a few moments!  Don’t think to any thing! Free your heart, free as a bird! Think to over come to the difficulties! Whisper a favorite song of your child hood! Think every place from your room, house or even your country and finally the world, will cover by a blue light! In this time, you will feel some angels surround you!

 Pay heed to the grievances of the reed
Of what divisive separations breed
From the reed bed cut away just like a weed
My music people curse, warn and heed
Sliced to pieces my bosom and heart bleed
While I tell this tale of desire and need.
