20 hrs in ankara

Yesterday after din I cudn't open my door and went to recep an dey told me "u got the key of another hotel", haha. Our flight was delayed 1 hr and at transit stop in Istanbul we got to the domestic terminal 15 min b4 take off and dey allowed us to check in. We rushed to the plane at made it 5 mins b4 take off time. Haha only in Turkey rite? Ankara was home to the Hittites. It's hilly and weather like cameron. Had din in hotel Italian rest and listen to a preso on Turkey. Pop is 74 mil, Poland 38 mil and Hungary 10 mil. In Poland we met Ferenc the PM and Hungary's PM is Kazimierz; a impressive young and man! Hungary was founded in 896 and u can see the painting depicting this event in the PM's office. 96 is a key number and there are 96 steps from the senate down to the road!
