Turkey,Greece 2006 – with the Saharagelber
In about twee weeks Melissa and I are leaving for Turkey and Greece, first we are going to check out the eclipse, and then we start the tour trough Turkey, maybe we will visit Iran too, but I think we have to do that another time, because we have so much to see and do in Turkey. We want to drive as much on PPO as possible, not sure how we succeed with this yet, because it might be difficult to get and we can’t spend too much time searching for it.
The track to drive seems unlogical, but first we need to drive straight to the 100% zone of the eclipse, after the Eclipse we go back to the Istanbul area and continue the tour by exploring the West coast, then then underneath to the East – South-East. The we’re going up North via the middle regions of Turkey. I’ll write about our travel plans later, or maybe during the journey, but I won’t spend much time in updating the page, when I travel I don’t like to be busy with
these kind of things too much. After our journey through Turkey we go to Rhodos for one week, to do charity work (Melissa works for http://daps-gr.com).
Maybe we are going to catch some dogs with the TD too 
We will explore Rhodos in our free time, and I like the idea to drive around there, I always went to Greece by plane.
Red = Trip to and through Turkey.
Green = departure from Turkey and drive to the boat to Rhodos
Yellow = Trip back to the Netherlands, alternative route
We’ll see how it goes. We will spend a month in total, so maybe we can’t do it all, but that doesn’t matter, we’re still young and have plenty of time to revisit. Maybe next year when we may do the Silk route to China.
I am so enthousiastic about this trip, can’t wait! But I’m very stressed too, the car is not ready yet and there’s still much to do..
