Runner Up...Neal Hoss



This picture was taken on a Mediterranean cruise we took in 2007. We were the first people off the Legend of the Seas in the port of Kusadasi, Turkey. When we stepped off the ship, we were met by the band and flag bearers. What a photo opportunity! Beautiful costumes, charming music and happy faces - especially ours! (Susan still thinks they were there just for her.)

On the building to the rear, it says "When in Turkey, do what most Turkish people do." As we thought about it, that statement reflects what we like to do wherever we travel. To make any journey memorable, try to do what the people of that country, state or city do. Walk in their footsteps, eat their food, take their adventures, see their home using their eyes. Then maybe, you can take part of them home with you.
