| Mevlana Mosque (Lodge for Rumi) |
Well... we finally have some internet connection, but details of our days are melting together. We are on information overload! which is GREAT, until it's time to pull the written words together to detail our journey.
Street corners are decorated with whirling dervishes which I'll address in a future post!
Konya, Turkey
is a very conservative city!
Most women on the street cover their heads with headscarves... but we also saw Westernized attire worn by young women (perhaps college age?)!
Stephanie asked for prayer beads from Konya! Do you think she'll like these?
JPE & I are amazed by the number of mosques that dot the horizon...
these clay bottles act as chimneys & prevent rain from entering the flue...
a shopkeeper cleaning the sidewalk in front of his store!
one benefit of staying in a business hotel is comfy beds!

ummmm! endless cups of coffee or tea!
crispy potatoes with cumin, sausage or hard-boiled eggs...
an assortment of olives...
apricots (the tastiest dried fruit ever!), raisins &
cereal (similar to cocoa puffs), as well as cornflakes...
& a chef to cook your omelette!
after one night, we're off to Antalya (on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea).
It all looks wonderful. So happy to hear and see that you are having such a good time.
