Well Im ın turkey and its not really what i expected. The mosques are amazing, the people are only slightly psycho, and apple tea is amazing until you realize that it simply tastes like warm apple juıce

i adore turkey and apple tea!!!

[alexhawker]

Haha yeah. But the people constantly soliciting you and trying to rip you off gets old quickly. BTW, the whole tea-offering thing is only for women, since I didn't get offered tea very often.

We did however get tea on the house whenever wherever we were eating screwed our meal up (every night).

haha, i got free tea all the time!!!

[alexhawker]

Uhhh, the whole thing in my other reply about tea offering was in response to something someone else was talking to me about. Sorry.

[verbomaniac]

and i adore the undotted i ^-^

[alexhawker]

You know, I just replied to someone else's comment about the whole tea offering thing. Now I feel like a retard.
But yeah, I think it's only done to women, since I wasn't offered tea.
As for the undotted i, I don't adore it, but I think I would be able to tolerate it if it weren't inhabiting the space on the keyboard where I am used to seeing the normal i.

Turkish people are loud and obnoxious. Or maybe just the ones that went to my school. But the girls are pretty.

[alexhawker]

Well, there were some really nice Turks, but the ones on the streets trying to sell stuff were definitely loud and obnoxious. And of course always trying to rip you off.

The girls really are pretty though. They all have such nice eyes.

I'd like to drink tea like that :D

It's really good. At the spice bazaar they sold legit apple tea that you could brew yourself, but almost every tourist shop in the city sold the freeze-dried, nestea-style, just-add-water kind that all the restaurants actually served too. But yeah, just heat up some apple juice and put it in a Turkish saucer for exactly the same effect.
