Turkey

How I wish I can bring this humogous pumpkin back for Halloween Party.

Unforgettable quad bike ride.

Had fun taking pic with the adorable Turkish kid.

Behind me is some limestone thingy (Pardon me, not good with the names)

The 5th pic is the toilet bowl used during the ancient times (sounds crude, I know) and the last pic is the Replica of Trojan Horse.

Turkey trip was quite enjoyable but tiring though. Got to wake up at 6am every morning. Blame myself for being such a vainpot. Wanna make sure I looked my 'best' in every pic, spent almost 45 mins getting ready. haha... Had turkey in turkey, had turkish bath, drank my turkish coffee, ate my favourite turkish ice cream, watched turkish dance, belly dancing and did many turkish activities. We're always on the road, visiting churches, palaces and mosques (in fact, most of the churches are converted to mosques).

Had a little accident while riding on a quad bike. Luckily, it wasn't serious. I shld've braked instead of accelerating while going down slope. Quad bike overturned, awarded myself with a big bruise on my lower calf and thigh as well as a 15-cm scratch on the left side of my rib cage. Hell, it was so painful. Glad my friend didn't get injured except for a minor bruise on his hand. Felt bad actually. Passed the bike back to my friend and we rode up the terrain. It was freaky scary, I wish I could just walked down from the hilltop rather than riding on behind my friend. He was good in controlling the bike but still, it scared the wits out of me due to the accident I had earlier. Kept my sight away from the edge of the hill and kept chanting my prayers. Calling out to my buddha to protect me and hope that they can locate me exactly in Turkey. Finally, I was back on safe land once more. Went water rafting and got more bruises. Passed on the hot air balloon ride as it was rather expensive (USD220). The food in Turkey was not to my liking, prefers local food in Singapore. Nevertheless, it was a refreshing experience in an exotic place.

Long awaited break.

Finally, I get to rest before my next peak. Good news is I'm going to visit Turkey!! Bad news is, I am currently down with flu, bit of sore throat and itchy throat. Feeling a little feverish too. I wish I can recover well before my trip which is another 3 days' time. My endless work is not helping me. I tried sleeping for the whole of Saturday. Did nothing else but popped medication and sleep. I felt guilty for nothing doing any work. Whole body was aching, my nose seemed blocked.

I haven't been travelling much since HK in March this year and it was such a short trip. Not sure if I will enjoy the trip. Just glad to be able to escape from reality for the time being. To enjoy my trip better, my friends advise me to read on the history of the places I am visiting. Gonna try going to the library to get books on Turkey, probably bring a bk or two on the plane to read.

Guess my next destination after Turkey will be Japan with my family and Hong Kong. If not for my packed schedule, I would have squeezed in some days to visit my good friend, A in Hong Kong.
