Some Random Thoughts....

Internet...
Who would think that having the internet (when you want it) could be such a pleasure?? Let me tell you ... ME!! I have gone more than two weeks without a steady connection to the "net" and I was about insane! However, thanks to my Turkish friends, I have internet as it is meant to be... at my beck and call! About time!! I love it!

Weather...
As the days get longer, the weather remains gorgeous. Thanks to the altitude of my apartment, I always have a lovely breeze. The sun is hot only when you are in it for long periods of time. It's always a beautiful day in Turkiye!

Summer Nights...
I was sitting the other night at the Seaside with some friends. It was so lovely... the sound of the water nearby, pleasant conversation in English and Turkish, laughing with new friends and watching the night lights of the city on the opposite shore ... it doesn't get much better than this. :) I would have never thought I would ever be enjoying life as I am. I'm so glad!!!

Exploration...
Yesterday, I found a new place to explore. I took the ferry across the bay to a little town on the shore. It is a quaint little town - very quiet, not a lot of traffic or horns, people walking and taking in the serenity of the beach. I spent some time walking, window shopping (browsing the outdoor market) and, of course, eating. It was a great way to spend my afternoon. I am looking forward to spending more time across the way and beyond. :)

And now, it's time for me to get some things ready for tonight... Have a great day!!
