ANKARA - KAYSERİ  8 JULY 2010

The departure time of the Trans Asia train was 23:55.  My dear Turkey... I didn't see any train depart on time at all.  Usually I didn't follow whether the train departed on schedule or not... I couldn't be disappointed... I avoid this situation. I didn't follow...



A total of four passengers settled in the train compartment: two Polish youths, one middle age German and I... Andre, Paul and Yugin. My English consisted of "yes" and "no". I tried to say Andre in French. I quickly relised that mutual communication was not possible. Simply observing would have to suffice for me throughout the journey. How much stranger could the situation get on this journey !








At  departure, which was at midnight, the conductor gave each of us a pillow, bed sheet and a blanket. I was uncomfortable on the bunk bed  throughout the night and only slept briefly toward morning.  In the morning the train arrived Ankara Station at 9:30.  Here it stayed for a while for passengers 
 disembarking at Ankara. Meanwhile I bought a cup of thea and a simimt for breakfast from the train restaurant. The young Poles were just spreading Nutella on a slice of bread for breakfast...




I had slept..When I awake, the train hd arrived in Kayseri. My sister phoned me to congratulate me as this day would be the asencion night of Prophet Muhammad. I thanked her.. İn my opinion it is interesting approach that  I should receive the same congratulation while I wrote this text. I would like to ask her why the Prophet went there...

A few hours later my former colleague Mustafa called me and after (the usual small talk) he invited me to his daughter wedding.  I remembered her from our time together in a small Aegean town as teachers in the 1980's. I thanked him and said that I was going to Iran.

He said, "Oh, really !"



Mustafa and his daughter...








You can still see.. The snow of Erciyes doesn't melt even in summer . Erciyes is one of the symbol of the city of Kayseri... Stupid boys of Kayseri go to school to be an official in the future. Smart boys of Kayseri get to be an apprentice and afterwards they become businessmen...

           Once more , I had discovered the cheapest way to reach out the mid of Europe for a while.. at least, if I don't count the transfer cost to Krakow from Bratislava. The  round trip flight cost to the Bratislava airport from the  Dalaman airport was just 48 euro. Everything is good until here.             The plane of Ryanair launded at the Bratislava Letisko Airport toward midnight in 20th of October 2023. No bus in this hours to Krakow. I had to spent the night on the chairs of Letisko Bratislava.    I had booked the bus ticket to Krakow in the Flixbus firm.I had time until afternoon on saturday in Bratislava. I left Letisko Airport very early by public bus 60 numero to go to the city center of Bratislava. Already the intercity bus terminal is in the Nivy center where is in the city center of Bratislava.  The Nivy Tower is one of shopping centers in Bratislava . The intercity buses terminals is placed under floor of shopping. Quite modern, clean, usefull..also you can use

İsveç ..Danimarka'nın kuzey komşusu..kara sınırları iki ülke arasında yok.. baltık denizi iki ülke arasında en dar kuzeyde Helsingor ile Helsingborg arasında 5-6 km kadar burada  feribot geçişi var..güneyde ise  Copenhagen ana havalimanı olan Kastrup bölgesinden Malmö'ye yaklaşık 16 km'lik  karayolu ve tren hattı ile bağlantı sağlayan 2000 yılı haziranında  halka açılmış önemli bir ulaşım noktası Oresund köprüsü...bağlantı yolu bir kısmı deniz üzerinde bir bölümü deniz altında .. iki ülke arasında köprü bağlantısının güneyden yapılmasının bir nedeni  copenhagen'ın  kastrup bölgesinde uluslararası hizmet veren havalimanı olması ve İsveç 'in  Malmö şehrine olan yakınlığı.. Malmö'de ikamet edenlerin diğer ülkelere çıkış kapısı olarak kendi ülkelerini değil de Kastrup  havaalanını kullandıkları görülüyor.  Oresund köprüsüne ait denizin ortasından çıkan karayolu görselleri bu köprüyü ilgi odağı haline getiren en dikkat çekici turizm görseli.. ben de bu meşhur görüntü
