I enjoy talking about politics with the opposite site and i do it else where which is much better. This section has too many insult, swear words and bullshit exchange more than discussion. So every time I have the feeling that i need to bring my stomach upside down i just go to a real Luna park. A small Luna park action took place in this thread as well which messed by stomach and came from Mr-from-ng and VP (who let me down one more time) most of all...but what you can do! Kids need to play!
I really enjoy your story and thank you for sharing so much with us. You really proved what i was saying all this time. That there are TC all over the island...and the come from north for shopping, work or to have fun or even live south. They do not have any problem and all the government offices have Turkish speaking people to help all the TC.
You mention the obsession with the flag from the TC...well in one of my visits to the north part I had my younger brother with me. When we went home he wanted to draw...can you guess what made big impression to him and he wanted to put it down? The Turkish flags!!! And his comment after I ask where did he saw it...everywhere!
The lack of English signs and people who speak English north of the island is really an issue. As for the driving yes both sides feel like they own the road too apart from their cars.
Thank you for sharing photos and feelings with us. You made a lot of people jealous about your visit to the island.

Don't be too upset with mr-FROM-ng. He and Miltiades are good friends and of the same temperament it seems...
As for VP...I am amazed at how civil he keeps it sometimes with the attacks he has to face.
