Well, I knew that I was planning to go to either Italy or Turkey next, but hadn't made up my mind. Fortunately, I didn't have to do it myself- my parents have just signed up for a tour through Turkey a year from now, and when I saw the price listed for it, I jumped at the chance to come with. I'll probably end up paying a little over half of what I paid to see Egypt, and I suspect in the end I'll love it more. Don't get me wrong, Egypt is fabulous, and I wouldn't trade my experiences there for anything else, but I'm really into Greek and Roman antiquity, and that is much more richly represented in Turkey. I'll also get to see some Hittite ruins/museum, medieval castles, and more modern wonders, so I'll get an extremely thorough and fascinating look into this great country. The only thing that could make it better would to be to take in a soccer match while I'm there, but I'll probably just have to settle for watching one on the telly.
