Talking Turkey

Our trip to Turkey was fabulous! Istanbul is a historical, romantic and beautiful city. An unexpected bonus was that tulips were in bloom throughout the city during our visit. We accomplished A LOT on our mini-vacation. We toured mosques and palaces, took a cruise down the Bosphorus, and even saw whirling dervishes and belly dancers. In this photo we are at the Topkapi Palace posing in front of the gorgeous view of the Sea of Marmara. Little Zeina certainly enjoyed staying with her Teita and Jido in Lebanon. She came home with a new wardrobe and many toys.
