Europe (Continental) - July 2007

We are three ladies in our late 20s. We only have three days in Crete and are arriving into and out of Heraklion. We figured we would head on over to Chania after one night in Heraklion and stay there for 3 days. Unfortunately, we have an early ferry ride to Santorini on the morning of the 4th day out of Heraklion. Does anyone reccommend a better way to get to Santorini from Crete? Is there a ferry ride that leaves directly from Chania? Or do have to take the bus to get back to Heraklion? Is Chania even worth visiting or shall we stay on the other side of Crete to avoid the travel hassel?

I'll be attending college in one of these two cities and was wondering how they compared? I would like a comparison of architecture, natural beauty-scenery, weather, people, things to do,etc...

I just want your opinion about that .

10 days ago, I answered a racist question asked by a UK tourist, and I told her better look at Britishmen instead of accusing us Turks.
I defended Turkey's reputation.

But a turkish ( or so-called) user insulted me, and called me "pis köylü", and " you should go to a veterinary hospital". I am not kurdish, but the anti-kurdish hatred is also obvious in these words.
She even wanted other users to attack me, and they told me to "have a brain surgery", to "respect" others.
Such a non-sense.

If this person is attacking me, with such bad and dirty words, full of racism and hatred, so what should I do ?

Take this person to court?

I already had blocked her, but she dared talking about it again, 10 days later. And know she blocks me, and then I can't even answer and defend myself against her attacks.

IT IS PATHETIC, NO ?

What time of year is best to travel to the Greek Islands?
April, May, Sept or October?

What do you think of Holland and Costa Cruises to the Greek Islands? Which cruise line has decent food/cabins?

For land tours, do you like Brendan or Globus?

Is it better to take a land tour/cruise or just a cruise to see the Greek Islands?

Airfare from New York (JFK) to Athens, Greece is expensive. Any suggestions for cheaper airfares? Sites?

Can you suggest any travel sites to research for land tours and cruises lines?

Please, don't take this wrong BUT only locals and experts on the Greek Islands answer. I'm in the research stage and I need some good advice and direction to follow.

Thank you very much. I appreciate your help.

in the past people have been racist to me but at that time i was too young to understand how to deal with it, recently my friend got racially abused and she did the worst thing possible she went up to the racist bully and beat him up ( yeah she is one gutsy girl) but after that she didnt get justice instead she was named a bully and people started to hate her including the teachers. People deal with racism in different ways but what is the best way ?surely beating people up isnt, but then agian you can just ignore it how can you? it is very easy to get mad and sometimes when you are mad you just cant control your feelings especially when you are so passionate about your own culture (like my friend who beat up the bully, but obcourse this was not a good way to deal with it) how do you guys deal with this situation, have any of you every been in this situation before? what is the best way?, i am sorry if i have offended anyone i understand this is a very sensitive subject.

First time to Turkey, Taking £100 in lira for first couple of days, then do you suggest using a halifax debit card and with drawing cash or taking pounds and exchanging it with money changers (heared they always rip you off a few pounds.)
Also how much is it to eat out?
Any other tips or info would be most welcome!

I'm thinking of visiting Amsterdam to see the Anne Frank museum among other things (all legal!) Seems like all of Europe is pretty packed in, I'm assuming it would be 3 ish hours on the train? Is Amsterdam worth it? I would stay one night and go back the next morning if I did it.

Thanks

Tall, slim, good figures, often blonde, great skin. And those are just the average-looking ones. Do they do some kind of selection process at birth, or what?

I'm not Turkish .. but I have been reading the Turkish forum here..

And I would like to know why it is so important to believe the Armenian genocide never happened...and that if you say it did you are a traitor to Turkey..

I'm not an expect on the subject..So I won't make a judgemnent either way.. but I don't understand how if the genocide did happen it reflects badly on modern day Turkey.. Becaause it was a long time ago.. and a lot of people did bad things then..
All Germans admit the holocaust happened.. and nobody thinks Germany is a bad country now


Can you be Patriotic/Pro Turkish and still believe that Armenian genocide happened? Why is it necessary for every Turk to believe the same thing??


(I hope this question didn't offend. It is not meant to :-)) I'm just interested to know what Turkish people think about this)

Is it better to take the Eurostar train to visit Paris from London or the ferry ride? I'm booking my tickets and wanted to choose. Please let me know your experience and what you liked about each of them. I'm traveling from U.S. to U.K. for the summer and wanted to take 3-4 day trips from London to other parts of Europe.
