Weird things you find when you travel

Anyone who saw my February 2008 post will know that I have a certain fondness for the film "Bring me the Head of Alfredo Garcia" and not just for the name.

The tale of a morally bankrupt drifter played by Warren Oates in 70's Mexico as a paino player turned bounty hunter, out to get said head for a reward of $1m. vAnd it all goes horribly wrong.

The other star of the film was the 1962 Chevy Impala convertible, and guess what they had inside one of the bars in the hotel in Turkey we have just stayed in? Yup, a cherry red 60'2 Chevy Impala convertible (suitably beaten up) barely believable.

The staff and management had not idea why they had it there, other than a 60's/70's theme, but there it was.

I am hoping that the designer put it there on purpose. I could be wrong though.

Oh, and it was a glorious looking car.
