Change of plans ...

While I still want to backpack through the Aegean cities, my school made me an offer that was hard to pass up. They put me up on a tour in a three star hotel (which is a five star on the Loughrie scale) and I can pay it back in monthly installments. (hehe, suckers.)

So I'm not hitting Ephesus like I planned on this tour, but am going to see some wonderful beaches, islands and ancient sites within Turkey.

I'll still see Troy and Galipoli but will also see a mountain that contains the second largest concentrated oxygen production outside the rain forest. I can't wait to light a cigarette there.

All the information I can find on the trip is Turkish, but I found a web site with the tour and looked at pictures yesterday. It looks great. Ancient cities, ruins and, of course, wacky adventures. They even have an additional safari add on which I may or may not take. It depends if I can kill something while I am on Safari. If not, I'll probably find something else to do.

So, I'll be back on the 25th with a raconteur's arsenal full of yarns.

I had to let you know...I found somebody with almost the same name as you. Adam Carolla's agent is called: James "babydoll" Dixon

God I miss you.

HI Jamie,
How are you? It sounds like you are having an good time. You are so full of knowledge of history. Your sister's are historically challenged!! I had the USC golf team out the other day. They were very kind of, course I told them about you. We have a few golf members that are alumni's. Tell me, what do they do when someone gets married? How do they celebrate and what do they eat or do they? Ok, I love you! Love your Sister, Karalyn
