Our Turkish Adventure: Eastern Europe, Part 3: Croatia
http://williamsesinturkey.blogspot.com/2014/01/eastern-europe-part-3-croatia.html
Tuesday, January 14, 2014. Eastern Europe, Part 3: Croatia. Here it is: update 3 of our Eastern Europe Road Trip from this summer! Yes, September was a few months ago, but we've been busy. Still no baby girl born yet, so maybe I'll even get the blog fully up to date before she's born! After Slovenia, we spent a week just in Croatia - so much to see! First stop was Zagreb. Even though the light wasn't great, the waterfalls were really beautiful. And the lakes too. See, I was there too! Then we moved farth...

Our Turkish Adventure: July 2012
http://williamsesinturkey.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 14, 2012. We've neglected the blog for too long, so here's a timeline in pictures to catch us up. Bear with us. In November, we took a road trip with Ben and Elizabeth. We visited Troy (seen here). As well as Gallipoli. This is Lone Pine Monument, for fallen ANZAC Soldiers. On the same trip we swung through Bursa; here is the 14th century Ulu Mosque. We also visited Bergama on that trip, visiting the Asclepion (here). The Red Basilica (built in the 2nd century AD). But the view at the top ...

Our Turkish Adventure: August 2011
http://williamsesinturkey.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 24, 2011. In case you wondered. In case you wondered, the weather here is awesome. It was funnier when it was just straight sunshines, but the breeze is quite nice off the water too. I hear it might rain in December or January. I'll post a photo of me enjoying our patio furniture on the balcony, assuming it arrives today :-). That makes no sense. Back post 6: journey across town. I really should have brought the camera with us today. This was a 6-hour journey. My favorite part of the st...

Our Turkish Adventure: April 2013
http://williamsesinturkey.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 16, 2013. Morocco Trip (mostly in photos). Look at this, 2 blog posts within a week! We got home from our Greece trip on 30 Jan, and after a quick reset day flew out again to Morocco on the 1st of February! Really wish we could have spent another week getting to know this beautiful country. Ok, time for photos. I could ramble more but it's more fun to look at the pretty. Disclaimer: Be prepared for Dennis's winter beard, in its natural, untrimmed state. It's intense. A lot goes down in the...

Friday, August 10, 2012. Trains, Planes, Automobiles. For real. I'm on a roll today, or rather Paul is taking a nice long nap, so you also get photos from our trip to the Transportation Museum from Tuesday. My favorite was the room with the "how things work" display. A whole bunch of household electronics and a host of engines from big to small, all with their guts on display with an interactive aspect so you could see how they worked. Want to see what happens in your dishwasher? Black Sea, take 1. Sunsc...

Our next stop after Romania was Eger, Hungary.mostly because it was too far to drive all the way to Budapest from Cluj in one day for us. But Eger turned out to be a beautiful town! View from the castle above the town. Eger dates from the 10th Century. This was about 5 months in.). Inside the Matthias Church. The famo...

Our Turkish Adventure: July 2013

Friday, July 19, 2013. We took this trip in June as Dennis was finishing up his last final paper, although the finals period would not end for a few more weeks due to the protests. We flew into Erzurum, where we rented a car and stayed one night before driving on to Kars, Ardahan, and Artvin. Erzurum is a more conservative town and the major urban center of the northeast. Most notable are several examples of Sel çuk. On the way, we found out that Abdullah Gül. The Turkish President, was visiting the town.

Our Turkish Adventure: October 2011
http://williamsesinturkey.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 3, 2011. Alexander the Great and Abdalonymous on a lion hunt. Dennis here, typing my first blog ever. During the weekdays we go to language school, and pretty much go on with the rhythm of daily life, a fact that is of marginal interest when recounted in the simple past tense and limited vocabulary when the Turkish teacher asks us every morning, "What did you do yesterday?

Our Turkish Adventure: September 2011
http://williamsesinturkey.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 25, 2011. Terrible pun, I know. This is a sample yellow pepper Dennis got from one of the local produce stands. The quality of the fresh produce here is amazing, but you really have to be careful to buy things that are in season. The peaches back in August were the size of softballs and were amazing, but now they're mostly mushy and gross. Peppers seem to be in season. We can't find green ones though, just red and yellow. Which means "what did you do yesterday? 3) make appointment onlin...
