Wow! You did it! What a wonderful trip. I'm going to miss those great blogs. I anxiously awaited each and everyone. I do hope that you have that wonderful picture of the sunset over Istanbul enlarged and framed. What a shot, what a memory. Hope you are back home safe and sound. Welcome home!!!


Love, Gree
