Taxis cheap? After you get done paying $90 per couple for entry visas, $70 per couple to see Topaki, $50 for Aya Sofia, cheap taxis don't seem like such a bargain

To answer Murat's question to Martin...<BR>- Seeing the gulls flying in the lights of the minarets of the Blue Mosque in the moonlight while listening to a Kiwi opera singer sing Puccini at the Sultan Hostel pub.<BR>- The dome of Aya Sofia... no one else approached this architecture for another 500 years!<BR>- The wonderfully kind people, especially "the boys" who worked at Ishakpasha hotel.<BR>- Wishing hawkers would realize we did not want to buy a carpet.<BR>- Adana beyti.<BR>- Efes pilsen.<BR>- The Bosporus.<BR>- Topkapi palace, especially the fountains and the Harem.<BR>- The crew of the "Sunshine Boat" in Marmaris.<BR>- Fairy chimneys.<BR>- The children who loved practising their English with us.<BR>- The discount clothing stores.<BR>- Meals and flights dirt cheap.<BR><BR>The visa and entry fees cost as much as a meal in the US. You only pay them once. Figure it out.
