Subject: Turkey rocks!!!

Hey everyone,
I just wanted to comment on the "unforgettable" story we heard today - the lady who lived in Turkey in '71... Turkey is totally not like that!!! I am from there and I lived there for the first 18 years of my life, in Istanbul, a city with 12 million people, very similar to New York city, but with castles and palaces in the middle of it - hundreds of years of history. And of course it spans across Europe and Asia ;)) (Just some extra info there ;))
Anyway Turkey is one of the most American, and other countries friendly country... I have met many many people since I came to the U.S. who have been on cruises, tours etc. to Turkey, and every single one of them said they totally loved it, and they'd go back in a second.
I just want to erase this image of Turkey most American's have in their minds... Many people don't even know where Turkey might be, and some people have the warped image from that "Midnight Express" movie. It is a beautiful country, surrounded by water on three sides... Yes, it has it's economic problems etc., but it's a GREAT place to visit for tourists!!!!
I could go on forever... If you are interested, there is a lot of info out there, many pictures you can see online, and a lot of history you can catch up on. Just keep an open mind!!!!

Cheers!!
