ive got to get from Australia to Turkey to view, photograph & experience *again* the most remarkable feeling..seeing..*other than childbirth* of the Total Solar Eclipse in Turkey, in 2006. I would like to travel the surrounding areas for 3 months, and many goals to achieve before i can go.. But i start by manifesting Dreams ~ into Reality, today. Visit ECLIPSE 2006 for full Eclipse/Turkey feature.

Successful shopping in Istanbul

Successful shopping in Istanbul: "If you are travelling to the Middle East for the first time, Istanbul is a good choice. The city is very westernized but still has a lot of Oriental charme. A big plus is that Turkish is written in Latin script, so we can read everything - except the signs for Russian tourists :-) The currency takes a little getting used to - due to high inflation you can now buy a cheap kebab for 1,5 million Lira... Payment in the costume shops can be made in Lira, Euro, Dollars or any other currency. Most of them will tell you the price in Euro first. As far as I know, they don't accept credit cards."
