Thoughts on Turkey, traveling, and preparing to readjust.

Turkey was chill. Istanbul was ok on the way back through but because we couldnt change our flight to Frankfurt, we didn't get the extra day we wanted which means we didn't get to do a few of the sites that we had saved for our trip back through. We will jus thav eto go back. Man , we say that often. The food in Istanbul wasnt as good as it was in the rural areas, everything seemed more expensive. We did buy shoes! Both of us got a nice pair of leather shows to come back to the US in, yeh! But currently, we are both getting used to those shoes and fighting blisters from the massive amounts of walking.

We loved Olympos and Goreme. If you go to Olympos, dont stay anywhere besides Saban house. That is http://www.sabanpansion.com/ with the funky Turkish "s" if you are typing it. We also wish we had more time in Goreme and next time, we want to head east.

Its funny, as we go through this rtw trip, we keep making mention to where we will go on the next trip. What we want to add, take out, and how we will modify the next travels.

Now, we get ready for Eastern Europe and then back to the good ole US of A. Its getting to the end and now a new beginning. School acceptance and rejections are the next big thing and then we can start the next step.

We want to thank everyone that has continued to read this blog and if you are planning a round the world trip, we would be glad to help with the knowledge from the countries we have been. Who knows, maybe you will be helping us with our next trip.
