Return travel from Turkey
Finally, all of Petter Solberg World Rally Team is back home from Rally of Turkey. No flights due to volcanic ashes from Iceland, made us go for alternative transport back from Istanbul; coach. Monday morning at 1000 our coach started the journey through Europe. 72 hours and 8 countries later, everybody was finally back home. Just in time to prepare for next weeks flights to Auckland and Rally New Zealand.
If there are flights next week, most of us will fly out to Auckland Tuesday.
