It is 2:25 am, I am sitting in the hostel lounge in Istanbul. I am dead tired and the only reason I am here is because the lounge has A/C and the room upstairs doesn’t (and it’s bloody hot). There is one standing fan to be shared between 8 people but it doesn’t even revolve, distributing air to everyone in the room. There’s a guy who came in, turned the fan toward him, went to sleep. I intend to do the same later tonight, when everyone’s asleep. Turn the fan toward me, get my share of moving air. In the future, I am making sure I get rooms with A/C, especially if the country is hot during the summers.
On a side note, Starcraft 2 is coming out in a few days and once again, I’ll be falling way behind times when it comes to games. 
edit 7/23 : HOLY SHIT! Today, they installed A/C in our room!!!!!!!!!!!! Tonight I shall sleep awesome.
Rofl@ the heat roflroflrofl im getting star craft 2 for free soon :x:
You bastard, how come!? You might as well give it to me down the road
you don’t play games…RIGHT?
Or, you know, don’t travel to desert countries in the middle of summer.
Makes sense if you’re planning to do desert countries a whole separate time. But this is all on the way.
Of course, would love to return and experience desert winters.
You can plan a RTW and still hit the ideal times for each place. Here’s two different routes that do just that.

Yeah, it’s possible but I had originally wanted to wing most of my trip but now I semi-plan just for airplane prices. Just take it as it comes sometimes.
Where’s your RTW blog?
Never got around to making one.
I mostly just posted on Twitter, which worked out better since I could just send text messages wherever I was.
Hey Ken, I’ll make sure I’ll play a little extra SCII time for you when it comes out on Tuesday, lol. Fry’s is having a 12:01 sale on it Tuesday morning.
