L’avant Poste New Year Message
If you can read this, then you are not dead,
If you are not seriously injured, you are not in bed,
If you can understand this you can use you’re head,
Be happy about it, the best way to start the New Year.
The rest is just bullshit.

Kurban Bayrami Begins Today
Called Eid el-Adha or Eid el-Kebir in Arabic, Kurban Bayrami (koor-BAHN bahy-rah-muh) is the most important Islamic religious festival of the year, and a 4 or 5-day public holiday in Turkey. It will affect your travel plans, so be prepared for it. (Dates)
Kurban Bayrami is also the time of the annual pilgrimage to Mecca (Haj), so both domestic and international travel is intense in Turkey at this time.
Kurban Bayrami doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go to Turkey. You should plan for the holiday, though. Depending upon where you travel, you may find it changes your plans very little. Here’s what to do.
No matter what time of the year you are planning a trip to Turkey, check out Tom Brosnahan’s website – the best out there with travel tips to Turkey.
