USD-->QR-->TRY-->EU-->TRY-->EU-->QR...?!?


At some point along the way, we emptied purses and pockets and found US dollars, Qatari Riyale, Turkish Lira, and Euros. When dealing with conversion from one currency to another, we can play along...but the four conversions was too much. At some point, you go into a shop, the proprietor tells you how much, and you just pitifully hold out a wad of cash and tell them to take what they need. Who needs muggers?

The comforting part is that you have no idea how much you spent until you get home and look at your bank statement...and by then, it's too late.

  2. Thanks for the sweet note! Unfortunately, there's even more to come... :/ I think we took about 2000 photos over 3 weeks. Plus there's the video montage that we're saving 'til last...
