Back again

Almost three months.  Been back to the States and now back again in Istanbul.  Start classes on Monday.  Last week was meetings, meetings, meetings.  Some frustrating IT training, and I have much to do to be ready for students next week.  It's  a sunny Saturday and I think I spend an hour or so at the office and then to the pool.

Wandering among the Fairy Chimneys in Capadoccia
Just a brief recap and some pictures of where I left off last May.  Trip to Capadoccia with Rob, Judy, Tom and Til was good.  We had some on again, off again weather and at times it was a struggle to get the group moving but some spectacular scenery and a good time at the Flintstones Cave Hotel (where the rooms are reallly caves)  with our great host Mehmet.

  3. Fascinating, Moira. I'd love to travel here just based on your photos (cave hotel, not so much!).
