We spent a beautiful sunny day taking pictures of our favorite restaurants and friends from each restaurant, there are several more but these are the very best and we eat at each one at least once a week. The first one is Halil who manages the Traveler’s Irish Pub. He speaks English and has been very kind to us. He always gives us tastes of his special sauces or hot peppers which I (Carol) eat, Jerry does not. Sometimes the peppers are hotter than the ones we get in Tucson. The second picture is the owner of our favorite corba (soup) restaurant. He also treats us to some of his special dishes. The third is the waiter from our favorite pide (bread with cheese and for us mushrooms, others get meat) restaurant. We gave our blog address to Halil today. I’m curious to hear his comments. From several other blog readers who are from Turkey or this area we have heard it is interesting to read about their culture through a visitors eyes.
I'm sure it interesting for the Turks to read your blog - probably not as interesting as it is for us, tho'. This is like travelling without the drudge of flying! You all are having so much fun and are such good USA ambassadors!
ReplyDeleteBTW, when you say the 'first picture' . . is that from the top down or bottom up?
