You may remember that while on our trip we were interviewed by some random Turkish journalist while touring the ruins of Ani. At the time, I doubted that this man was a legitimate journalist. While I still have my doubts, apparently we did make the news. In fact, we made at least 10 Turkish newspapers!

As Jessica pointed out to me, this journalist did take several liberties with the facts. (Although, to be fair, we have no idea how Celil translated our comments to the journalist.) In fact, Brian didn't really talk with the journalist. And we never said that mosques made us happy. But, there you have it. You never know what is going to happen in Turkey!
