LAST EDITED ON 03-19-19 AT 04:05 PM (EST)Yup, in addition to the postcards, you could get decks of playing cards with sexually explicit art in the Greek tourist shops.
Of all the places we went, I kind of liked Capri island the best. It's a tourist destination for sure, but the atmosphere and friendliness of locals suit me. You have to be in shape, though! The narrow streets and walkways traverse a steep hill and it's a bit of a maze to find your way around. The same was true of old town Bari on the Italian east coast, where the local guide took us to meet the family-owned restaurants and cafes and sample some of their delicious food fare. The people in own town Bari have a tradition of family-owned businesses and having their newly-wed daughters live just above them after they marry. Sons go live above the new wife's family. No escaping the constant scrutiny of the in-laws!
Turkey is high up on "my next places to visit". I'd like to explore Istanbul and some of the other cities/towns of historical antiquity.
I'm retiring at the end of next year, and global travel is something DW and I like to do a lot of.

Rule #1 in ruin castle/ruin visiting; Every ruin and castle is located at the highest ground. If you aren't in shape for those climbs when you start of your trip, you will be at the end. Sadly one of the more interesting parts of Turkey is the area that juts down toward Syria in the east. But western and central Turkey certainly has a lot to see, Ephesus, Troy, Istanbul, Cappadocia, Denali, etc. Greek Ruins and caravansaries galore. I rented a vehicle in Istanbul and did an ad hoc reservation-less trek thru to the Syrian border once, very memorable. Very friendly people, I still communicate with some I met then.

No one has been to "Mitad del Mundo"Kinda looks like me, after that illegal surgeon took the other one, which now has probably fathered half the children in China. Well, what can you do? At least "half right" is better than wrong.

Cattle ranchers stress the importance of getting both. All a bull needs is one to be a bull.

do I have to tip-toe?
Can't I just come in stomping and marching and making a lot of racket?

Tell me this isn't true. That Mr. Holier than thou is saying the we shouldn't be posting here anymore because he deems it dead, not cool, passé, or whatever? That we shouldn't be allowed to have our little fun in an all but forgotten corner of the web?

I think he's referring to the Lions. They don't have a chance to win the NFC North this year.

You could right, he is a Detroit guy. Kinda strange for him to pop in here with that, though. But I guess I owe him the benefit of the doubt.

Either that, or it could be about the OT forum, too.Pick your poison.

We can put him in the dubious category for now. Either a step above (if you dislike the Lions) or a step below (if you like OT) Norbert.
