Talking Turkey

 The skies are blue, the air is fresh... no, rather the air is a cool 7 degrees Cel during the 'heat' of the day and I cannot read the signs...
 Plans are being made and money spent in obtaining tickets to Bulgaria from Istanbul, where it turns out we will be crossing the border at a 'cool' Three AM and changing over from bus to train at that stage. Interesting travel times...
 I am fine with looking at the water and eyeing the seagulls but rather hesitant t get my feet wet. We are quite happy to join in with the fashion statements here being jackets and gloves. Ears get cold so when we go out tomorrow we will be taking our beanies along!

 Pretty lights in Taksim

The passage to "Home" scary huh?

  1. Aaahh, Turkey, probably the most fascinating place I've ever been, where east meets west, where the waiters fall over their feet to serve you, where the hospitality never ends over a little glass of chai, where exotic music, cheerful hooters and inviting flavours fill the air. All of the place names on those signposts bring back pleasant memories. Please write more about what you did and experienced there.
