This is Soraya and I in the
summer of 1976

This is Soraya and her sister, Lisa, in the
summer of 1976 (at the Caspian Sea). At first, Soraya hated the water. Then, after awhile, she decided she liked it. She started splashing water all over the place.

Soraya was famous for finding empty coke bottles
and trying to suck out the last drop.

She is dressed in an original Iranian costume
for attending a party or a wedding.

Soraya and I - She was my little
Snuggle-uff-lacus.
That was one of my nicknames for her.
