Dear Marie I am glad that you had such a fantastic time in Istanbul! I have never seen spices sold like that in such quantity - amazing. Jeff would have really appreciated that - he is an amazing cook!
Love the treasures you bought home too - ooh lala that lace!

Hi Marie, I can't believe you came to Turkey! Not so far away from where I am. We thought about going there this summer, or Malaysia -- but as it turns out, we are going to Nepal instead. Hubby has had a dream to go there since the 70's when he was unable to cross from India into Nepal. We head out tomorrow for a 10-day adventure. No doubt you had a fabulous time on your birthday getaway. Wishing you all the best, Tammy
looks like a beautiful place to visit, lovely images
Hi sweet Marie, It looks like you had a fabulous trip and enjoyed the tour. It's great that you found some treasures for your artwork too.
Have a great afternoon!
Big hugs,

Happy Belated Birthday! I am so glad you had such a great time, it does look like a lovely place to visit. Sweet finds as well, I know you will make something special with those lovely bits.
I've never been to Turkey but my daughter has been a couple of times and loves it.
I hope you had a lovely birthday. Your treasures look beautiful.
