Paying my respects at the Blue Mosque.

Dave took this picture. He likes this food and it is better than in NYC. It just is.

I feel happy at the Sultan's Palace. Topkapi Palace.

Dave got someone to take this picture of us. Perhaps wishful thinking on his part that we are saying Welcome to our Home!

Me in the Grand Bazaar.

The textiles are divine.

My favorite vendor. This little old lady was knitting when I first noticed her sitting on the ground outside the GB. She makes beautiful slippers and also was selling delicate needlework trims made by her cousins. I told her -- with sign language -- that I also knitted but not as good as she does. She laughed!
