Syria

Three years ago, I was really thrilled when my uncle who lived in Syria invited me to go there. My uncle used to work in Iran Embassy in Syria. I was really happy and since I didn't have my passport. It took me a while to get one and finally I got one and I went to Syria. I was both afraid and excited because it was my first time going on a trip all alone by myself. At Mehrabad Airport I found out that I had to stay at the airport about 6 hours because of delay. During this 6 hours delay I met a French man, and we talked in english about different subjects specially the world cup 2006. As it had been arranged, when I got to Syria Airport, my uncle's friend picked me up and we went to my uncle's house. I was supposed to stay there for three weeks and the second week we were planning to go to Lebanon. I was having a wonderful time during the first ten days of my trip, but unfortunately the night before going to Lebanon, my uncle came home from his office and said that we all had to get ready to go back to Iran and it was at the Airport that I heard the sad news of my grandmother's death, naturally I got very sad but that's life.
