I am a native in this world And think in it as a native thinks

Oops
One more picture from our visit to the Imam Khomeini house.
I wanted to take a picture of the welcome sign, but that soldier wouldn't get out of the way.
I learned why a few moments later when he came over to me and told me nicely but firmly that no photography was allowed outside the house. At least he didn't make me delete the picture.
