Surfing...
The channels were just a blur as I was changing them too quickly. There was nothing to watch. The cooking was done. I didn't want to read. Sigh! Nothing to do. And then suddenly I heard a voice... "this is the place to be at night..." the shots were of a narrow street which I completely fell in love with the first instant I saw it. Where we had our first taste of raki. Where we tried one of the tastiest meze' ever!
The show was "globe-traveller" on Discovery - Travel & Living.
Misty eyed, I jumped up to call A and tell him to hurry home and watch the second half of the episode on Istanbul with me.
I was smiling too much as I watched - The Blue Mosque, Galata Tower, streets of SultanAhmet whiz by on the TV screen... I was there. We were there together. It felt so... exhiliratingly cool! And it felt sad. That it is over. All we are left with are the photographs. The blog. And the memories.
Sigh.

awww. and sigh.
thinking of you guys a lot recently; i just read a novel called The New Life. its by Orhan Pamuk, about these college students in turkey, who travel all over the country by bus (for reasons that make up the whole novel!) but the descriptions of the small towns, the hostels, street eateries...
awwww. and sigh.
hello nina! where have you been???? sorry about missing your birthday! what with all the reading about turkey - maybe you guys should go there :)
Good comments. But, I do not agree with most of them. People sure have a lot of time on their hands.
Hey...
How did you get your blog to be so good? Originally I was out trying to locate rashguard related information, but your post got my attention and stopped me in my tracks :) Glad I found you because I'm trying to improve my site about rashguard and your blog here gave me some excellent ideas. Thanks ##NAME## for the good read and I think I'll mention your blog to my cousin (if that's okay...)
Keep up your effort ~ and good job.
