RDU-Washington Dules-Frankfurt-Istanbul. hop, skip, jump. I found old Rosco by the baggage claim playing his guitar and wooing the new arrivals. After a light rail adventure from the airport, and a couple of looping circles around various neighborhoods in our taxi we were evntually dumped in the old historic sector and left to look for our hotel on our own.
We met 3 or 4 nice Turkish folks as we attempted to get directions, and eventually made it to our room. Here I was glad to discover proof that the interior designer and I have a similar idea of what paradise is. Among other essentials, we have a light that changes from red to green, to blue, to purple, to aqua.
Here are a few shots from our brief foray out into the surrounding streets:
oh yay...and ross is with you? what fun? is he video taping with his new toy,i wonder? and are you?? super mysterious night time views...but i don't see the sun??? it should be blazing hot when you awake. is there lots of smoke that combines with the sun molecules i wonder.
ReplyDeleteDude - I am going with you to SA, I am not missing another opportunity to travel, especially with you.. let me know what dates you are looking at!
ReplyDeleteGlad we got some time together before you left! Travels safe and keep shooting!
Much love brother!
you're making me want to travel! excellent stuff.
ReplyDelete@mj the sun has come, ross is here, the video is rolling; little time to sleep, less time to eat, and no time to blog for the learning has been bumpin. time to switch it up, and kick it for a bit, flip on the picture light for friends to see.
ReplyDelete@Jon it was great to see you to brother. plans for SA still in the works, but too far away from the present to be stamped and dated. not to worry, you'll be first to know. these things can be schemed over beers and winter hot tub sessions...
I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I love you, I love you, I love you......love the color palete you have got there.....I so what to be a fly on the wall and learn too......OMG....I feel like the world just started spinning faster.
ReplyDeleteI just checked out ur pictures. What you are doing is absolutely amazing and I can see your personality shining through your images. Randy is jealous and I'm left inspired. Looking at your photos just strengthened my drive to build a life I love through travel. I think I even want to join in on your moped diaries!!! I've always wanted to do that!! Keep doing what you're doing. You are the new generation with a fresh mind and a lot of talent... watch out old boys!! Forest has arrived!!
ReplyDelete@ Stephanie let the moped possy ride! it's a band of art and the inspiration is shared. truly, you and Randy each have an excellent take on how this world should spin us. After spending a good chunk of time on Randy's website they other day, I don't imagine he's in the least bit troubled by my piddlings ;)
