Hello from CO,

Is there anything of great interest to see in Izmir?  If not, we were planning to fly to Istanbul on a flight at noon on the 12th.  Is that too early or can we make that departure easily?

Glad to hear that things are going well with Perception.

Ciao,

Gail & Jim

Fred,

 

We trust all went well with your return.  You are once again living our dream life.  We plan to visit your website from time to time to keep up.

 

We are preparing to make our travel plans, and buy our tickets.  We wish to confirm our dates and places of arrival and departure with you.  We plan to arrive in Bodrum, Turkey, on Saturday, July 7 and leave from Bodrum, Turkey, on Saturday, July 21.  Are those plans still okay with you?  Is a visit of two weeks still okay?

 

I have never been to Europe, but Tatiana has been several times, so we are considering making a few stops in Europe before or after our cruise.  We may make plans to arrive in, say, London, spend a few days, and move on.  From there, we are considering Madrid or Costa Bravo, Monaco and Nice.

 

What airlines fly to Bodrum?  How do you usually travel from the U.S. to Europe?  From where and on whom do you connect to Bodrum? 

 

Also, please confirm your telephone number in Turkey.

 

Jack and Tatiana

Fred and Phyl,

 

Dave has an ATT (formerly Cingular) cellphone. It seems that we can take it and use it abroad (4 bands width or something) with a lot of roaming and per-minute charges.

 

How easy is it to rent a cell phone for 24 days when you arrive in Paris? How can you find out info about renting in advance of getting to Paris?

 

Thanks for any help you can provide.

 

Carol
