“Hey guys I’m John and this is Holly and Reb, and right now we’re on a plane to Turkey and the views out of my window are very, very beautiful.”,
“Wow! That’s really amazing!”, said Reb,
“Yes it is!”, said Holly,
At the airport
“So friends I would like you to meet my good friends; Ela, Emel and Deniz.”, said John,
“Merhaba, we are so happy to see you.”, said Emel,
“Evet, it is so lovely to see you again.”, said Ela,
“It is so beautiful here!”, said Holly,
“Yes it is!”, agreed Reb,
“Would you like to see around?”, asked Deniz,
“Oh yes please!”, said Holly and Reb,
“So we thought we would take you to a restoran, and then we could go to the beach?”, asked Deniz,
“Ok that sounds good.”, said John, “what do you think girls?”,
“Yep, that’s sounds good to me.”, said Holly,
“That was delicious!”, said Holly,
“Yes it was!”, agreed Reb,
As the waiter came and took the plates away Ela said something to him in Turkish, he nodded and walked away.
“What did you tell him?”, asked John,
“You will see in a minute!”, she replied,
When the waiter returned he brought with him a large plate of halka tatlisi.
“Teşekkür ederim!”, said Emel,
“Rica ederim!”, he said,
So they paid and gave the waiter a tip, and walked a little way to the beach. There they saw some fish and jellyfish!
“I have a question for you.”, said John, “ Q. How much of a jellyfish is water?”, (the answer is at the end, but try to figure it out first!)
After they had some fun it was starting to get dark and they went home.
The next morning they had a very Turkish breakfast and went for a walk. They had been walking for a while and were getting thirsty so they went to a cafe for a nice cold smoothie. After they had finished and paid they kept walking and they saw this lovely boat…
Then they went home.
“Well, that was a lovely walk.”, said Holly,
“Yes it was!”, agreed Reb,
They enjoyed the rest of their week in Turkey and it was finally the last day. Emel, Deniz and Ela took them to the airport. When they arrived Holly said, “Thank you so much for having us and we had so much fun!”,
“Yes! We did, thank you!”, said Reb,
“Rica ederim!”, said Ela,
“Teşekkur ederim, for coming!”, said Emel,
“Please do come again!”, said Deniz,
“Goodbye and Thank You!”, say the Garden Gang,
“Hoçşa kal!”, say Emel, Deniz and Ela,
“Bye friends see you in Egypt!”,
