Istanbul

Our first stop in Turkey was Istanbul. We stayed with Inci Teyze. Isabel Deniz loved to play with her cousins Isil and Deniz! Buyuk Deniz was very generous with her toys, and Isabel Deniz loved to play her piano because she could stand and walk around it with almost no help.


We also visited Baba's school friend Ekrem in his store.

We went to one of the Sultan's residences to have breakfast and a walk in the gardens.

We also visited Baba's old friend Coskun by his boat.

We also went to drink with some of Baba's college friends. Isabel Deniz fell asleep, but was awakened shortly by little Ruzgar, and had a wild night with the rest of us.
