Let's Talk Turkey (Groan)

Here are some photos from our visit to Turkey, where we ended up after fleeing the carbon monoxide cloud in Moscow. I don't understand how to get my text in line with the photos, so I'll make comments up here:

Photo 1: No, Anastasia did not shrink - this photo is of Olivia and April with Nika, the daughter of my English friend.

Photo 2: Anastasia keeping up with her journal as we cruise the Aegean. 'What do I need sightseeing for if I have an imagination?'

Photo 3: Alex is so crazy about cars that he insists on swimming with them.

Photo 4: For his birthday he received a cement truck and an ambulance. Lyena and I loved the taste of the döner in this restaurant.

Photo 5: Olivia, April and Nika making sand castles.

Photo 6-8: In the one of me my legs splayed I'm divebombing fish with a net from the deck of a ship. I resurfaced triumphantly to the cheers of my fellow passengers and held up my glorious catch for all to admire: a piece of bread we were using as bait.

Photo 9: The last photo is one of me teaching the girls how to kitesurf (much easier without a kite and board).

Best,
Matt

  1. Nice pics! the first one needs a fish hook with a dollar bill on it. Where many people jumping off the boat?

  2. There were a good number of people jumping off the side rails, but just a few guys jumped from the top. Did you see the video of the dive I sent you?

  3. Thanks for sharing the photos. We loved them!
    Mom may be still recovering from her hip replacement but she doesn't miss much. She said, "how did they take pictures underwater?"
