Belgium Day 204: A Fez for Ink

This is the fez purchased in the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul.  Finally unpacked it today and gave it to Inky.

I can't bend my neck!

Not so sure about this fez.

Are we done yet?

So traumatized I must lay down in an anti-fez demonstration.

Inky and her fez.

Turkey Day 9: Ortakoy







The most beautiful conversation.  I didn't capture it well, but i didn't want to be rude. Turkish sign language is so pretty.  

You see all sorts in Turkey! 


Baked potatoes bigger than my face.

Ta da!

REALLY yummy.

Potato row.  


Fun henna













Waffles.  Life-changing waffles. 




First the edges get trimmed...

then we add white chocolate, dark chocolate, and banana sauce...

followed by fresh fruits...

Perfection

Do I have to leave?!


Sauces

Finishing touches




On the ferry back to Bursa!
