9 months in Turkey

Well, I finally got around to getting the blog updated and I put a selection of some 32 snaps together to kind of give a flavour of the place. Last winter here was foul with blizzards and snow-days in Istanbul so there was not much exploring done, only a little around Istanbul.

I bought a Harley in Northern Ireland back in Feb and, once the weather improved, rode it down through Europe to Turkey in May over the course of 5 days. This has enabled me to be a lot more mobile and I’ve made some trips to the Aegean coast and additionally made a 3000km bike tour with my old friend Glenn MacArtney around Cappadocia in central Turkey and also along the south and west coasts as well as the Gallipoli peninsula. I’ll post a separate bike-trip page for that one to add to the others in that section.

The summer will be drawing to a close soon, but I will try and be a little more active, time permitting, on the blog. Hope you enjoy the pictures, just click on the picture above to go to the album.
