I hope there won't be any grey-wolves around..You are asking bit much aren't you ?Why don't you come round to Pinarbasi while you are nearby.There you can find lots of old circassian's who will tell you first hand what they know about the past.

ThornyRose Posted June 5, 2001 Report Share Posted June 5, 2001 Levon, how are you going?Called the guys up.. Told me it starts at 9 AM... I decided to take the train at 19:40, end up there at 3 in the morning out in the cold, stick around for six hours. LOL! Really, I have stuff to do that day if I won't be around on Friday...I was wondering why Steve doesn't fly directly to Kayseri.Also wondering if I might actually get to somehow meet you and Steve. ****************In fact, Levon, if I can't get my cousin's camera (she has to find it from post-home-moving junk), we'll give Agos your photos.

Kazza Posted June 5, 2001 Report Share Posted June 5, 2001 Well,..All I can say Is..whish I could come! LOL! But, I suppose there will be time enough for other things we could meet up for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whadya say?[ June 05, 2001: Message edited by: Thorny Rose ]ThornyBut why not take a bus on Thursday evening? The train is insane - even if you do get your students discount! As for flying, I don't have the money to spare!If you do go - and want to meet me (I will be there, I hope!) then the best way to identify me would be to ask one of the Americans Armenians to point out a man named Armen Aroyan, he is the leader of their tour group, and since Armen knows me, he can point me out to you. Or just carry a rose! If you don't go, I'll be in Ankara at the end or the month - perhaps we could meet then, if you want. I'll keep in contact via this forum.Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThornyRose Posted June 6, 2001 Report Share Posted June 6, 2001 Yeah, I think it is insane, too.I talked with my aunt about which bus is good and safe, etc. She told me to opt for Metro if I can find a seat. I've always preferred train, though... But 3 AM, all by myself? Boring and exhausting.My boyfriend is upset that I am going, though. ))) I asked him if he would come along if I took the bus but he said his parents would object. (And he is 20 years old, damn it. I envision mommism...) As for my aunt, she is cool with it. :cool:I intend to ask again what time the thing is... If they say it is 9 AM again, that'll be fine. If they give me some other time, that'll suck. The guy who opened the phone was not someone responsible for the stuff - some kind of guard or what have you, I guess... Might not know... Then again... I'll have to be around early.I probably will not be able to find a rose early in the morning in a city I don't know at all, and it'll get all crushed up if I take it with me during the bus ride, so I'll look around for Armen Aroyan... If you can private message me, I can give you my e-mail, as well. *Not here out in the open*Same goes for you, Levon. I think it would be nice. :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThornyRose Posted June 6, 2001 Report Share Posted June 6, 2001 LOL, technology is cool, no?Boyfriend, he says I am not Armenian so I have no business there, that they will show it on TV and it'll be boring, blah blah, and that he had been waiting the whole semester for the term to be over and that he can't sacrifice a day. Sod him. Some buses are safer than others, I'll tell you that.I wish there was a train later. Who the hell would want to land in Kayseri 3 AM in the morning?Boyfriend also said that he would tie me up if I tried to go there by train, given the hours,... "Knowing what Kayseri is like," etc. No problem for me. Why are Turkish men overprotective? I don't want to be protected. If something happens, I'll learn. heh.Have a nice flight, Steve! By the way... I HATE flying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThornyRose Posted June 6, 2001 Report Share Posted June 6, 2001 Steve, I was right. I called them back, and the person who answered the phone said it was at 10 AM. LOL!Maybe I should have asked to talk to someone in authority, but...The guy, whoever he is, asked me who I was when I asked him the time. I told him I was just somebody who wanted to attend, etc. Yep.Either way, check your profile for private messages. Appended are my e-mail address and something for you to recognize me with; I’ll have it with me, either way. Better than having to find a rose first thing in the morning or getting off on the station with a crushed one on me. LOL!

ThornyRose Posted June 7, 2001 Report Share Posted June 7, 2001 Steve, I just checked my mail! I had asked the Agos guy what he thought about the time, and he said this: "Sabah ayini 10.00 da başlar 13.00 civarında kilise bahçesinde sevgi sofrası açılacak. Yemekten sonra hemen yola çıkacaklar. Orada görüşürüz." Starts at 10:00, "free food" at 13:00. They (I guess that is the group) leave immediately after lunch to continue on (to wherever).And he gave me his name and phone number. ))) So, Agos will be there anyhow. )))I'll record his phone number in mine. )))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellthecat Posted June 8, 2001 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2001 Just a little note from Kayseri! Went to the church and met Filis there, if Levon was also there then he did not make himself known to us. Filis went there by an overnight bus, gettıng in at 5am and then hanging around the bus station until dawn! She should be back in Ankara by now, in her bed and asleep. I will wrıte something about the event and post ıt ın the culture (or maybe events?)sectıon later Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
