There have been many amusing things which have happend to us on our trip to Turkey.
One of them has to be the outright endorsement of Barack Obama by a taxi driver in Bursa.
Saban Corlu told us that if he lived im America he would defintely vote for Obama.
Corlu has been a taxi driver for some 30 years.
He told us that Obama seemed like a highly intelligent and likeable person who would enhance the image of America around the world.
İ did not argue with him!
The trip to Bursa also gave me a chance to visit my friend Ugur Celikkol.
His father perfomed a shadow puppett play with Karagoz and Hacivat for us.
The Celikkols run a antique business in Bursa near the Ulu Mosque. Ugur also has a travel agency business.
They also think Obama would make a great president.
Who knew Turkey was a blue state..........!
