So things are speeding along and I can't believe I leave in a week.
Well...I am scheduled to leave in a week. I don't have my visa yet, so we shall await the good will of the Turkish consulate in Los Angeles.
I am also still looking for an apartment. Things keep falling through. But I shall prevail!! :)
The party was last Saturday and it was great! Smith and Bethany did a terrific job. Thank you to everyone who helped and attended.
I keep thinking to myself "I can't believe I am doing this!" It's strange when things that you have thought about and imagined for so long begin to make their way into reality. It's like they are slowly becoming visible through a haze of fog and I am walking closer and closer to them.
Today I am going shopping to get some new shoes for the trip. I really don't like shoe shopping. I have such old lady feet, it just isn't an enjoyable activity.
Today's cool fact about Istanbul:
There are a bunch of Starbucks!!! :)
