Lucky you!
Hi Tracey & Bernie, I'm really glad you're enjoying Turkey. It's one of my favourite countries - have been there 3 times. Hope you're going to visit Goreme in Cappodoccia, Central Turkey. Amazing place, home to the ancient troglodytes who built homes in the strange pointed sandstone towers which proliferate the countryside. These were later used by the christians to escape persecution. So there is wonderful artwork inside those caves used as churches. Fascinating place. Good to take a balloon ride over the area for a spectacular view. Also try to get to Permukale - the calcified terraces there are AMAZING and the ancient Roman ruins are in excellent condition. There is a cave nearby which is a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary and is a place of pilgimage for both Christians, Muslims & Jews!! She is purportedly buried nearby. Well worth a visit. Cheers, Caroline

Wow - a real rest
Sounds like you are finally getting a real break and should be super relaxed by the time you move on. Loved the glass wear in the museum - amazing. Enjoy yourselves despite the frustation with the net cheers

Turkey is AWESOME.
Thanks Tracey, you're obviously having a wonderful time. Hope you get OUT there and experience the Turkish people themselves. I never stay in a resort, too many things to see/do. Hope you get to Central Turkey; Cappadocia and the troglodyte homes in Goreme are not to be missed. Gulay Gulay. Caroline

What a great way to celebrate!
I should have realised you would have a blog of your Pt Douglas trip. I enjoyed reading it and it brought back memories of our own trip of 2002 to Cairns/Pt Douglas. The snorkeling trip is one of my happiest traveling moments. Sounds like you had a wonderful celebration of your 30 year milestone!

Waterfalls
Hi Tracey and Bernie, Still reading your Blogs with keen interest and admiring the great photos. Hope I haven't breached Copyright, but I've forwarded some of your Blogs on to Ray Calverley. Ray really loves shooting waterfalls (plus he's a RAW fanatic like you two). Ray has been suitably impressed! Also, thank you for your birthday card which arrive on Bastille Day. A very pleasant surprise and brilliantly timed! Envious regards, Leo.

Hey!
Sorry for not making a comment earlier. Have been following your travels avidly. Just jealous, I guess. Good to see your photographic skills at work throughout your ABC tour (Another Bloody Canal, Another Bloody Cycle, Another Bloody Church, Another Bloody Cascade, Another Bloody Castle, Another Bloody Coo). Keep on having a great time.

Gipsies, Scams and other traps!
Hi Tracey and Bernie, Love the photos, especially the night shots around Paris ... makes us very nostalgic! Experienced travellers like you would know how to avoid the 'angry gypsies' at Sacre Coeur ... I just tumbled in much to Lyn's concern. As for the ring scam, it was tested on us about 5 or 6 times but we managed to avoid being ripped off. Love to you both ... and please seay hi to Janet.

In Bruges
I wondered if you would be paying homage to "In Bruges" on your visit. I loved the idea of a hitman going sightseeing. It was a great little movie.
