Rendezvous with Turkish Police

Last Saturday me and a friend got drunk in a pub in mersin and were walking back home.A police car stopped by and asked us for our identification but both us had left our passports at home so we were escorted to the police station.By the time we reached the police station i was a little sober.I explained to the police officer that i had left my passport at home but nobody seemed to bother and for 2 hours both us were sitting in the police station and just looking at each other.

After 2 hours a officer took us home in his car but i had a difficult time giving him directions as i was drunk and dint know how to give directions in Turkish.We reached home around 3 in the morning then he checked our papers and left after telling us to carry our documents at all times.After this we had a few more beers and went to bed.The moral of the story carry your documents at all times and drink lots of beer !
