I was looking at the map closely last night after I went to bed. You were right there, next to Iran. Was that not dangerous, flying around? Started reading about Baku and oil in Azerbaijan. First modern mechanically drilled oil well, pre-dating US. Wow. Everything I didn't know about oil :)
Also, the cats. Apparently it's a Muslim tradition, to treat cats well. There is a legend that Muhammad once cut off the sleeve of his robe so he wouldn't disturb his sleeping cat. The cat had fallen asleep on the robe.
Your blog was a fascinating introduction to a part of the world I never thought about very much.
