These men are everywhere. The Shore Road is an amazing collection of people who are doing all sorts of things.

These fishing poles are really long.

Blaine and Matt walked the Shore Road to watch the fishermen. This man let them take his picture and take a picture of his catch. They catch these little fish that are just bigger than sardines. They just throw in their hooks...no bait. I have seen lots of these fish in the markets. It would be interesting to know how they fix them.

After breakfast we walked down the Bosphorus past Ramili Hasir. It is a beautiful spring day. The trees are in full bloom. The wind was blowing a little so Jo and I went back to the car but Blaine and Matt decided to walk home.

This kitty was under our table just waiting for something. I couldn't resist. I fed it the "sausage". He loved it and just waited for more. I tried the egg but he didn't like that at all. There are cats everywhere here.

We had a traditional Turkish breakfast of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, olives, cheese, breads, sausage (Turkish sausage is not pork...and it tastes like bologna) and eggs. Jo, Matt and I had eggs with spinach. It was really good. One of the breads was simit and you eat it with honey butter. So good. I could eat Turkish breakfast everyday.

This is the day before we leave. So we went out to a special breakfast at a restaurant on the Bosphorus. We parked at Ramili Hisar and walked down the road to this cafe. We ate outdoors with this beautiful view.

The final products. They all did a great job.

This is Lauren. She really wanted to use her "toy" machine but I talked her into learning on the real thing.

On Wednesday a couple of K's friends came over to learn how to make pillow cases. This is Alita. She did a great job. She was very careful and very precise.
