I gave up on the Asia trip today after confusion aplenty at the ticket booth of the bus station and a very long time at TurkCell. Note to readers: Never, Never, Never assemble a group of more than 6 to do anything... it simply does not work. All is not lost however, the cell phone girls were very friendly and spoke some of the best English I have encountered, and through the marvelous tools of Google and the World Wide Web we were able to communicate without a problem. Also, my phone problems seem to have been fixed after an hour long international call to the states.
As for Asia, it will be mine! Soon enough, when the gods favor me and the winds are at my back, I will cross over. For now though, I think I will learn some Turkish to make life a bit easier... hey, at least I know I won't starve here (navigating the market is a different story).

Glad I was awake at 5:30 on a Saturday morning to get your call. However brief it was, it was good to hear your voice. Stay dry, stay warm and keep posting :-) MOM
