The previous Friday night (16th) I caught the train to Adana to meet the trainees at the same pub as NYE. As well as meet Ali, Magda and Maria again I saw Fabs and Isa (German trainees) for the first time. I was also lucky enough to see Ebru and Kubilay and receive their wedding invitation for the 21st of February! Of course I accepted. I am excited!

On Saturday morning after a few hours not enough sleep at Ali’s I caught the train back to Mersin. Since NYE the single adult train ticket between Mersin and Adana has risen from 1,900,000 TL to 2,250,000 TL. Do they issue new tickets? No, just stamp or write the new prices on the old tickets!
