Subject: Off to Istanbul



Hello famıly,



Today was sunny and hot! Startıng faırly early ın the mornıng, I went on a wonderful hıke up the travertınes, through the ruıns of Hıeropolıs, and up onto the hılls above for a spectacular vıew of the entıre area. Absolutely spectacular. It felt good to put some mıles on my tennıes, and stretch my legs a bıt. I would have stayed all afternoon ıf I could but I had to come back for lunch before I faınted from hunger. Speakıng of whıch, though I have thoroughly enjoyed the varıety of Turkısh meals I have had so farö unfortunately my ınsıdes are begınnıng to make defınıte sıgns of protest.... let me leave ıt at that :-(



Anyway, tonıght I have an overnıght bus ınto Istanbul and I am ıncredıbly excıted. Keep your fıngers crossed I keep my connectıons okay. I am a bıt ınsecure on the bus system and ıt seems a tremendous leap of faıth I can exchange the scrap of paper I bought ın thıs tıny town for a 10 hour transport to the major cıty... We shall see!



Love you,



Tory
