Hunt for Terrestrial Orchids in SW Turkey
Ever since I watched Midnight Express, I never wanted anything to do with
Turkey. Also foraging around in the forests for orchids may have you coming across an illegal poppy field. After what I have seen the drug cartels do in Mexico, I would not want to find out what they do in Turkey. Vito "Holly" wrote in message ...
