That year, we decided to go all the adventure to unknown lands: The Middle East, land of the Arabian Nights and sultan on their flying carpets. We embark on a ferry to Ancona in Italy and disembark the western coast of Greece, to visit small meteors and the south coast of Kavala. A day of discovery by tram in Istanbul is not too much: Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Sevelim the covered souk, Taxim district and the Bosphorus are among them. Cappadocia balloon is an unforgettable moment. Syria is a wonderful country and great cities, fine cuisine and most welcoming people: Aleppo and fortress, and Palmyra ruins on the outskirts of Iraq, and Bosra Amphitheatre, the castle of Krak des Chevaliers, Damascus souk and capiltale, Hama and its waterwheels dating from Roman remains to be done and redone. Jordan and Wadi Rum desert, a resemblance Akakus of Libya. A day trip to Petra to be missed for anything in the world, taking at least once in his life, cited haunting and mysterious glints of light striking. Return by the Dead Sea and a passage Pammukale and boarding to Cesne Turkey to Italy.
