The Plan

So, day three is going well. Spent yesterday sunbathing, visiting the grand bazaar, had a typical anatolian meal and generally walked a lot. I've also got a turkish mate here who's been showing me around and today we're gonna drive up the bosphorous and generally chill out. The food last night was good... lots of good meat and meatbally type things (really tasty lamb)... had a yoghurt drink with it called ayran (which I remember all the turks in Berlin drinking), a really nice dessert which was a mix between a creme brulee and a rice pudding, and turkish coffee (which is essentially caffeine heroin and should be taken intraveneously).

Also, I came up with a plan for the rest of turkey. It goes like this: Istanbul - Izmir - Bodrun - Antalya - Konya - Cappadoccia - Ankara (Southwestern Anatolia & Med) and then from Ankara - Trapzom - Van - Urfu - Vanin in the East before crossing into Iran

That's all for now... peace out. C.
