CAPTIVATING CAPPADOCIA -- 10

THANKS TO EFENDI TRAVEL

The Day 2 tour took me all over the place, so I left having ticked every checklist item save for the (additional cost plus 3 a.m. wake up call) sunrise balloon trip.

I bought so many books on Cappadocia, that I even emailed Yusuf about Turkish Airlines policy on weight of bag.

I always go light and carry on, but when faced with a 200 USD cost of shipping home rare books from Istanbul and souvenirs for Cappadocia, I was figuring may check the bags was my option.

Yusuf, a highly trained tourism expert, assured me that while the carry on limit was 8KG, I had at least 20 KG of checked bag for free allowance for the journey back to Miami later in the week.
