Sorry, but the eviction plus winter holiday has kept me away from the internet for a long time. Not to worry- I'm back in Konya, back at work, and back to a (semi)reliable internet connection. And I kept a little travel journal to ensure I pass on the choicest bits of my holidays to you. Where to start? Our new apartment has come a l...

And One Fine Morning...: December 2011
http://postgradstillrad.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
And One Fine Morning. Monday, 5 December 2011. Queen of the Cotton Castle. After Fridays night class, my academic faculty student and his wife invited me to the movies with them. I graciously accepted, and the three of us headed to see the last installment of the Twilight series: Breaking Dawn. The film was in English with Turkish subtitles, so I was able to quench my thirst for pop culture with ease. Cinematic genius, it was not, but it was a fun way to end the school week.
