We've finally managed to get signed into vox. There is some problem with our internet and vox so we can rarely even load the blog itself!!!
Despite the long absence everything here is lovely. The weather is starting to warm up, the roasted chestnut vendors are slowly being replaced by sweet corn, and the cats are "loving each other all the time." (As I was told by a student.)
Josh and I are planning a trip to North Cyprus next month, followed by a visit from my mom and sister in May. We've got more travelling planned after that and then a return to the good old U S of A in June-ish. I think we're both looking forward to the change, although the spring here has me feeling optimistic about the adventures we've yet to have here in Istanbul.
In other news,my camera broke a few weeks ago and I received a fantastic early birthday present from my family - I think it takes great pictures!
And....in even more interesting news....Josh and I got engaged! Fancy news!
(But don't worry, we won't be having a wedding in Turkey or another distant land.)
I'm rattling this entry off from the school, but after a looooong full day of classes I don't want to spend a minute more than necessary here. Instead, you can entertain yourselves with lots of lovely photos. Check out our flickr page for more!
*This picture was taken by Tabby, but I really love it. These old wooden houses are sprinkled throughout the city.
