I recently returned from a great trip to Greece (6+ days) and Turkey (5+ days) and here's the summary. Greece was fantastic as usual; this was my 3rd time. Such a great destination! The guesthouses were beyond great and the food was incredible as always. Turkey was a little bit of an adventure as English is not spoken there. Occasionally, I would succeed with German and once, a farmer told me in perfect French what I had to do and what not. :-)
The birding was spectacular wherever I went ... Start reading at my blog at http://birdmeister.wordpress.com and check the links for pictures and trip reports at the bottom of the post.
Enjoy.
