More Turkey

Talk about fate: The woman I worked closest with while in Turkey and her husband are fellow photography enthusiasts (much more experienced then yours truly). AND they shoot with a Canon. AND, they generously took time out of their busy lives to show me around. It was wonderful. So I spent my second (and last) free day with them on the Asian side of Istanbul.  


The day before I went to the Grand Bazaar and while it was cool to see I was a little disappointed. I expected it to be a huge market where the locals actually shop. It was indeed huge (I got lost a few times), but a lot of it consisted of souvenir shops with similar made-in-China goods you see anywhere else. So it was great to walk around outdoor market areas and see where the locals shop.
