Turkey: Souvenirs

In response to my travel posts about Turkey (Turkey Baby! and Turkey Logistics), I had a query from Verbal Sid about souvenir shopping and packing them for the return flight to South Africa. Thanks for the query Sid! I am gonna be lazy and copy and paste our email conversation.

Turkey Logistics

This post covers the logistics of the trip, i.e. flights, accommodation, etc. We were a group of 10 people. Yikes!

This large number posed a challenge when looking for accommodation for a number of reasons:
1) we wanted to stay together in one place;
2) the place had to have more than one bathroom;
3) place had to be as cheap as possible while still being nice; and
4) free wifi would be welcomed with open arms (this was a necessity for some of the social media addicts in the group *wink*)
