Wonderful Post
WOW, this place sounds amazing! All of the places you have been have sounded exciting, educational or adventuous, but this one is the easiest to relate to so far! Never really thought about Turkey, now I'll do a little reading! Thank you for sharing with us; and also thanks for allowing Kelly and John to be next door! Last night Brad was at a meeting and about 8:30 John popped in to borrow a game we have! I thought of you two and was thankful to have the kids so close! Hugs Also with the temps over 90 every day and humidity at a high, no rain here just all around us, mosquitoes EVERYWHERE (little ones, kind of strange), we are in paradise! LOL Btw, I saw Gaahl a couple of times recently, he has certainly enjoyed the local food here, as you two are enjoying Turkey! Think of him when you eat your next sweet roll; although I happen to know he is only eating cat food, he is enjoying it as much as I have ever seen! I warned J & K that they just might get a strong word or two when you return! Continue on and it was "less worrisome" to read this post, you two look so refreshed and beautiful (handsome)! Live for all of us at home who are not there with you having the time of your lives!! Jane
