We were in Antalya a few years ago when we were on a cruise. We went to a very nice restaurant, had a lovely meal then tried to pay the bill - only to be told that the only acceptable currency was Deutchmarks!!! As we had none ( just a few US dollars, some Greek drachma, plenty of Sterling and Turkish Lira) I told my other half that it looked like we were washing up which had all the Germans in the restaurant pricking up their ears! Fortunately I'd had the foresight to bring a credit card with me, which happily WAS acceptable, the disappointment was tangible!!:D:D: :)We couldn't believe that Turkish lira wasn't taken, it was overwhelmingly German.
