Landed in Turkiye, had to wait about an hour or so for Kubs, Tam, Chris, and Christine to arrive. My initial impression of Turkyie was that the locals were very much European, in their demeanor, attitude and style.
I found out later from Kubs (or Nurdan) that Turkey was the second European country to allow women to vote. Given the state and qualms of other Islamic countries in the world, that's very refreshing. Perhaps Iran, and others can take notes from their neighbor.
Settled my butt in a coffee shop, where i had a perfect view of the arrivals monitor, ordered a mocha and opened up the Richard Branson book, waiting for the gang to arrive.
Their flight was slightly delayed.
