lioness - Dec, 09 2007 03:12pm Jorge, it definitely must be the same Iranian family :-) I know that the younger one has a sun-glasses (and glasses?) shop in Hadibo, the other one is her mother. They used to live in Dubai before moving to Socotra. I am not sure, but I might have seen Andre in their courtyard? Is it possible? Because, when I went to pick the cake up from the Iranian family´s place, there was a foreign man with them and we all chatted for some 5 minutes...Was that Andre??!! jorgesanchez - Dec, 09 2007 03:12pm Yes Neda! So you met him. He lived with that family most of the week in Socotra because they all are of Bahai religion. Since I am not Bahai I was not invited, and slept most of the nights a la belle etoile.
