A great tale! Greece has always felt 'close' to me. Although I will probably never get close to it- this time around anyway. :)

A friend of mine went to Turkey a month ago on a guided tour- his first time on a tour and he was a bit worried about it. He isn't due back yet but he has written me that he is having an incredible time. He is loving it and says that he would never have on his own found the places where they have taken him.   Maybe next time he'll go by himself.
