OFF TO ISTANBUL!
So, it's 2:00 am and our plane leaves in 12 hours. The bags are packed, the work projects have (mostly) been organized and completed. I hope everything is ready. The good news is that when I come back, I will feature all of my adventures on the blog, just like I did with the month of Morocco. The not so good news, is that you will have to wait until October for these photos. So, the blog will be on a short hiatus, while I am being bussed around various archaeological sites and wandering around the Grand Bazaar. I am sure it will be quite the adventure, and I hope you come back in October 1st to enjoy the ride.
I am joining my parents for their long planned trip to Istanbul. They actually visited Istanbul during their honeymoon, in the 70's, and are going back now in (relative) style. 40 years later, at least they don't have to camp and eat canned foods. I am excited to journey with them to this exotic land, which everyone says is a magical blend of east and west.
I hope to post some photos from the journey on my Instagram. So, follow along on Twitter or like my new Facebook page to check in along the way. (At least when we have a decent internet connection!) See you in October!
