Masya'Allah, Mideast! 2010 - Dream to Reality

Finally, after weeks of deliberation, we have both come to compromise on what is to be our greatest journey thus far. So here's the finalised route. Nothing will be left unturned, from tarbus to jelabiyyeh, to baklava and shwarma! Even Ephesus, Baalbek and Apamea will have to get ready for this assault!

Anyway, this trip is set to be more expensive than previously planned for. Return tickets to Istanbul via Dubai have been purchased (SGD1019 on Turkish Airlines, including taxes, per person) as well as the one-way Cairo-Istanbul route (SGD320 on Turkish Airlines, including taxes, per person). Preliminary revision of budget puts it at SGD3000/pax for the entire trip so far. This is even after the 4 free nights stay at Amman. Yikes!

I can hardly wait.
