On the way to Gallipoli (Canakkale) we crossed from Asia to Europe and then back again. We are staying in a small seaside town called Canakkale. It is also famous for the ancient Greek city just down the road, Troy. The statue of the wooden horse is from the movie, Troy.
The ferry ride back and forth across the Dardanelles Strait was very smooth and fast. They were selling some very strange looking children’s toys on the ferry! Tonight we ate at a seafood restaurant on the waterfront, which is where our motel is. Man, this place is hopping after sunset! The name of the bar downstairs is the Hangover, pronounced, Han Goover! Right now the call to prayer is competing with the disco music from the Han Gooover! Very surreal!
