Dolmuş

Went out on the Dolmuş today to Istinye Park shopping mall. The first time I did this I got lost haha but now I've got it down to a fine art! Anyway on with todays news, got to the shopping centre no problem so we come out and get on the Dolmuş to come home, paid for 3 people "Uç tane lütfen" it was absolutely packed to the rafters on the way home armpit to armpit - get the picture? Anyway people start to get off and I find we are the only ones left on. The driver turned round and blurbed some Turkish at me of which I only understood a couple of words so I said I didn't understand. He then reached into his money pot and gave me 1 lira back and said "iki tane, çocuklar something something something!!" I think he meant that children were cheaper or half or something I don't know. Anyway I was amazed that on a packed bus he'd remembered exactly how much I'd paid and how many I'd paid for and then decided to refund the extra, WOW!!!
