That should be fun, kayleigh! You've been there quite a few times, right? I knew Germans love Turkey, but I didn't realize it was a destination for Scottish people, too!
Hey, maybe you'll see Cressidagater there!
I was in Turkey in Istanbul and Bodrum in 1996 for several weeks visiting my then significant other and his family after his military duty was over. We went to Ephesus on a 110 F day! I loved the Roman history there, especially the Roman toilets and plumbing. And the blue blue ocean next to the mountains in Marmaris! Really lovely.
I was even learning Turkish. All I remember now is "seni seviyorum" (I love you) and "patlijan" (eggplant) and "usure," a delicious vegan Turkish desert made with beans!
