Just came in from dinner and watching some fireworks. We actually saw most of the fireworks from our living room window. There was a boat that went down the river and every quarter mile or so fired off some colorful fireworks. It was pretty cool. Right before dark was the dragon boat races. There were two large kayak type boats with 8 or 10 paddlers who kept time with a drummer. That was also right out our front window. Unfortunately we got to the parade too late. It started at 10:00 and we got there about 10:40 and it was over. Oh well, maybe next year, who knows. Today was mostly spent catching up on tv shows through our expat vpn system. We saw a CSI episode and the new Hawaii 50. We also regularly watch Jon Stewart and hope his big rally to restore sanity on Saturday is a big hit!
I got behind in reading your blog. It was fun reading all that has been going on. Carol has always been the one to dance every dance. Jerry, it's great exercise. Just go for it. I'm not so sure about the kereoke. I'm glad the heat is on. It's still on here only it's outside. 94 yesterday. broke the record.
ReplyDeleteI am a little worried about your work load. Is saying "no thank you" (hayir tesekkur ederim)an option? I'm trying to learn a little Turkish.
