A little diary....(Ian Anderson Standart)

Greetings from Istanbul,Turkey everyone

I just wanted to share a little diary with you.Hope You guys like it



9.30 am time to go to the customs office.....



Mom made some square compact brownies for me....No time to eat...




Need to go to the airport first....Turkish customs suck big time...




Very Emontional moment




Aha! this is the place where they keep my guitar as a prisoner!




Looks like it wont be as easy as I thought! The custom officer is confused.He wants to keep the guitar to himself and play all day long!
No way boy!




There she is! The officers brought up the package to inspect it!




And after a loooong,loooong wait (7 hours to be precise)




Freedom baby





My newest tandler/morgaine mintage 61 is not happy.She is not very polite to the newcomers.She is ready to cause some trouble!!.But it wont that easy though


So here go! Please fasten your seatbelts.

Wow what an ordeal. Sure you completely forgot about it as soon as you opened the case.

Very, very nice
