IMHO, he should be given life without parole and given a cell with a big dick thug. Oh, shit, that is my fantasy. I do hope they give him life and not death.

Sounds like you all are going to have fun!

Excellent report. Thank you. Firecat use to go to Colombia a lot but has not been in recent years. When I saw the photos he took of the boys, it made me really want to go and visit. Now, you have given me even more to desire. Thank you for the great report.

Why not? I was in Istanbul last week and had a blast. I met this lady at the Intercontinental Hotel and she asked where I was from and I told her New York. She said, "I have a friend there named Brian. He is an actor. Do you know him?" I said yes and I thought he was amazing and smiled. You never know.

Great list. 6. I failed miserably and can't even say get out of my apartment in Thai. 7. I needed this about 12 years back. Would have saved me a fortune.

With a name as gay as Rainbow bar, will the trend to more manly boys last? I don't think so!

Excellent trip report. Thank you. And, ignore the posters telling anyone not to post numbers. I like to hear them and I know others do as well. I am not one to care much about how many fish one caught in a pond but if someone posts it, I may or may not read about it. Please don't let the nastiness of some of the more cunty posters dissuade you from posting whatever you wish to post. Many of us enjoy it a great deal.

I read the listings and many look good. But, the prices are from good to expensive. LOL I am sure many are testing the waters. But, what area on their map is where the gays are?

I love this game! And, the last episode was fabulous! The tribal council was the best in a long time. I am happy that Joe is still there as I like looking at him. I do miss Joquim.

It started a bit slow but it really did build up the characters each episode. I loved the final few episodes. The cliffhanger at the end was perfect!

I thought it was very very funny! All of the toasters did a great job. Martha was the best and Snoop was funny as hell. I thought everyone was witty and it was excellent.

A minaret is a distinctive architectural feature of mosques and this one was taken outside the great Blue Mosque in Istanbul today! The others are from the Blue Mosque as well. I went on a tour inside. It is still an active Mosque so you must take your shoes off before you go inside and there are those that are praying. It was a beautiful Mosque!

I have eaten at many places including a fish place near the bridge and a restaurant called Platinum near the old city and it has a glass floor that you can see the caverns below. very cool. But, for photos, here is one place I ate outside the palace that I liked the kabob's.

It is one of my favorite shows and I never never miss it. I love it. I also like them together but for this show, they have been together longer than anyone in that family. Love lasting long in that family is unique.

Dear Governor, Welcome to the site! We are glad you have come out to us and happy to have you here! Oz

I also loved Steven King's response: @StephenKing Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration act is gay discrimination, pure and simple. You can frost a dog turd, but it's still a dog turd. As for this thread, I love the topic but hate personal attacks. Please stick to the topic.

The Hagia Sophia was a Greek Orthodox Church and then a Mosque and now a museum. It portrays many beautiful mosaics from the New Testament and it very lovely to see. It also tells a lot about the value that the Turkish placed on historical buildings. It is a example of Byzantine architecture and it was the largest domed church in the world for nearly 1,000 years. The church was converted to a Muslim Mosque when the Ottomans conquered Constantinople and many of the Christian symbols were destroyed but the building itself stood tall. Today was rainy and wet and messy and there was a line around the block. My driver told me at least 2 hours. I was not willing to wait. But, a guy approached us and said for an extra 3USD he would take me to the front of the line and get me in. I was doubtful but agreed. It worked great and no wait time. He did the same thing for the Cistern an hour or two later. I tipped him both times and he followed me saying “my friend, my friend.” LOL But, I think I pissed off more than a few who were waiting properly with umbrellas and rain gear.

My first night I did meet a taxi driver that was very cute. He had manicured hands, clean shaven and designer clothes. I asked him where the gay bars were just to find out if he was gay and he told me. He and I chatted. It was a bad chat as he speaks no English. But, i did take him to dinner that night. He was very sweet and taller than me (I'm 6'2"). I have another meeting with him on the trip and he will take me back to airport when I leave.

Thank you! I did see them. Wonderful! I also loved the Harem Room. I have been in the EU side as I am at the Intercon and it is adjacent to Taksim Square. Great area and easy to get everywhere. But, traffic is horrible. I did a Turkish Bath as well. LOVED it! More to come on that later. Thank you. I will try on next trip. I only have one more day and I have a tour in AM. And, Ephesus is 9 hour driver away.

Day 2 The Bosphorus River Cruise The Bosphorus River runs through Istanbul. It is a legendary river that has been in many films and the mansions that were build on the River date back to the Ottoman empire. There was one that a sultan just purchased for 125 Million USD to renovate for his 2nd wife. The river gives you a nice view of beautiful homes, several bridges, the huge Rumelihisar fortress as well as tons of homes that fill the mountain tops of the river areas. The cruise was a great time but the weather was cold and taking photos in an open air boat got this New Yorker, really cold!

I have always been fascinated with the ancient Ottoman Empire since hearing about it in high school. I have always wanted to visit Istanbul. My trip is not so much boytoy or moneyboy related but more of a cultural photo perspective. I am not Tomcal and I don't have tons of boy photos. I am not Firecat and have tons of sex adventures. But, I am enjoying my time in this magical land and I hope some of you will enjoy the photos and the adventure as well. Day 1: Spice Market The Spice Market, or the Egyptian Market, is one of the coolest places to go in Istanbul. It is one of the larger markets and inside you will find tons of spices and places that make Turkish Delight. Naturally, I had to buy a box or two. It was originally called the New Market as it was next to a Mosque that was built from taxes from the Egyptian treasury. There was a big crowd there today but still it was enjoyable to see.

Good and maybe one day they will go to the Thai way, just buy one at 7-11.

Yes, and if Danilo was available today, I'll still hire him on each and every trip for every city as he was great for me and to me. Plus, he was so sexy, I could just stare at him. No sex but I still can fantasize.
