Turkey Photo Dump

Turkeli, Sinop, Turkey
I’ve been in a tiny village in Turkey. Here’s my husband’s 400+ year-old ancestral house. They were ethnic Turks in the Russian empire and were forced out in the 1500’s. They ended up in here. We’re ten minutes from the Black Sea.
Noooo... UPDATE
Update: I am much better, but still stuffy. I’m currently waiting at SFO armed with a ton of cold medicine. Istanbul in about 15 hours!
Late night OT
I just got home after 17 days in Oregon and I leave for Turkey on Friday.
