The wedding was in Massachusetts but we had a layover in Chicago. Unfortunately for us while we were waiting for the next flight a huge lightening storm rolled in and cancelled a bunch of flights. After spending all day at the airport on Wednesday and looking at a lot of different options, the best plan was to wait it out and catch a flight on Friday. This meant that we had an unexpected tourist day in Chicago. Neither Eric or I had ever been so this was exciting for both of us.<br />
<br />
Chicago is exciting... but so is the American breakfast buffet at our hotel!! French toast and bacon, no cold meat or dinner rolls in sight! <br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Lahn Canoe Trip!</b></span></div>
<br />
A long holiday weekend came up in Germany (a bit unexpectedly) so after doing some research about what to do we came across this canoe trip. The river Lahn runs through Marburg so it is actually pretty common for people to take a trip like this. We opted for the two day / one night version but we could have done longer or shorter. We took the train about 10 minutes down the line and walked about two miles to the meet point. Here is Eric with our canoe all packed up and ready to launch!<br />

After a few kilometers we came across this Fireman training thing that was going on. The canoe people had sort of warned us about this. There was a big orange thing across the whole river (you can just see it in the background of the photo) and we had to canoe really hard to get enough momentum to make it across. We had to get instructions from a firefighter on shore because we had no idea what to do! <br />

We had a map and a designated stopping point for the day. We canoed about 9 miles the first day (with a fair amount of paddling- there is not much current on the Lahn). We stopped off at this large campground. There were A LOT of other people doing this exact same trip. Most of them were camping at the campground. Our instructions were pretty vague- leave the canoe at the campground. There were lots of other canoes around so we hauled ours off, left our paddles inside and prayed that it would still be there the next day.<br />
<br />
We did not bring any camping gear with us to Germany and renting sleeping bags is not super appealing so we opted to stay in the bed and breakfast that is in town. It was a mile walk or so which is why leaving the canoe was a bit stressful. I am really glad we did not camp- the place was a zoo. It was on a smallish lake and since it was an extremely hot holiday weekend you can imagine the craziness going on at that campground. <br />

After a few kilometers of paddling we floated through Giessen... and a rowing competition! There were boats everywhere threatening to run into us. A guy on a megaphone started talking to us. We yelled at him 'Wir sprechen nicht Deutsch!' and he switched to English. He was very nice and asked us to keep to the side and keep clear of the racers.<br />

Right after we got through the race we got to go down the boat ramp. It was a little nerve racking (we really did not want to tip over and get all our stuff wet) but it was a smooth ride. <br />

Here are some other canoers riding down successfully. The ramp was really nice because it meant we did not have to carry the boat around the weir, which we did have to do on several other occasions. The boat is heavy and awkward to carry.<br />

What a crazy yet memorable vacation! I wish we had more time to finish excavating our square and to do some more site seeing. But after two weeks is was nice to get back to Germany. Everyone on this dig was super nice and we all had a great time. Digging Rocks!</div>

Week 1And now comes the most unique vacation I have ever taken- working on an archeology site in Israel! This is something my dad has always wanted to do and we decided it was finally time to make it happen! I have not seen my parents since September so it was interesting having them pick me up from the Tel Aviv airport!<br />

First day on the dig! Our hotel was just outside of Jerusalem but the actual dig site was a 45 minute bus ride away in the West Bank. There were quite a lot of volunteers (almost all American). This is our introductory talk about the history of the area.<br />

All the volunteers were split into smaller groups of about 5 people. The small groups were assigned to a 6 meter by 6 meter square. This is our square early morning day one. It really doesn't look like much; it was the equivalent of walking out to a field and saying dig! <br />

We somehow learned for the first time that there are hedgehogs living in the Grözingers back yard... how did we not know??? Cutest infestation ever!!! They even have hedgehog houses built for them to hibernate in over the winter. We put some of Felix's food out and Gerhard provided us with a night vision scope so that we could try and see the hedgehogs at night. We managed to catch a glimpse of one but somehow missed the entire cat food bowl being eaten. <br />

A Besenwirtschaft is a farmhouse/restaurant that is only open for a very short amount of time, anywhere from a week to a month per year. The farmers serve all of the food (meat) and drinks (wine) that they have produced during the year. We showed up about 40 minutes before it opened and there were about 20 people already waiting. It was definitely an older crowd. However, we were assured that since the Besenwirtschafts are open late, the younger crowd is there until the early hours of the morning drinking. </div>

When we arrived back in Marburg we had to say goodbye to Karen. Her flight left the next day so it was the end of our travels together. We had a really nice time showing her Marburg and of course being entertained by the Grözingers. Thank you Karen for your wonderful visit!! And thank you Grözingers- the world's best hosts!Allisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14315293000661292870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281792744745409491.post-72235752152137097292014-06-03T13:27:00.001-07:002014-06-03T13:28:32.763-07:00Karen's Visit Part 1<div style="text-align: center;">
A few days after the Walkingshaws left we had another visitor; my Godmother Karen! Karen was on a European tour and decided to make a stop in Marburg. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our first stop was the brush store! </div>

Here we are at Burg Eltz; Rick Steve's favorite castle in all of Europe!! This castle was pretty magical. Unlike most of the castles in Germany, Napoleon did not get to this one. Mostly because it is tucked away in a valley, not on a river. In other words, not a very strategic location so it was pretty much ignored.<br />

The inside was nice- no pictures were allowed but it was definitely worth it just to see the castle exterior! After this we drove a ways to a cute neighboring village and on a whim decided to hike up to the castle. This castle was very much in ruin and pretty small- the big attraction was the restaurant at the top! (We had not had lunch yet).</div>

It was nice, but at this point I had become quite the castle snob and wasn't inspired to take a million pictures. We dropped off the rental car at the airport and then took the train into Frankfurt. We had booked Cindy and Dale a hotel for one night right next to the train station (they had an early flight the next morning). While Cindy and I relaxed in the hotel room Dale and Eric walked along the river.</div>

Eric and I caught a late train back to Marburg. This is Dale and Cindy waving to us from outside the train. Overall we had a really nice trip and we were so happy Dale and Cindy were able to visit! We promised them lots of castles and I think we delivered. Thank you Walkingshaws!<br />

On our way to Cochem we stopped in St. Goar to check out.... a castle! We had actually visited St. Goar on the river cruise, the town was cute but nothing super special. It was mostly a lot of tourist shops so we did not linger long, but the castle did catch our attention and so here we are.<br />

The castle was really a bunch of ruins, or 'wreckage' as Cindy would say. Most castles on the Rhine were conquered by Napolean and damaged. This was a nice castle to visit because you could wander around and explore- and it was huge! <br />

We saw a sign pointing to the 'Mining Tunnel' so we went inside and came to this very dark staircase. There was some debate about whether we should go down or not- curiosity won and we carefully descended. Another great example of things that would not be allowed in the US. Super narrow uneven stairs, wobbly hand rail and no light. I went first using the flashlight option on my cell phone, Eric was last doing the same with his phone. </div>

After we were done exploring the castle I strong armed everyone into eating at the cafe. Eric didn't want to eat here because he was going to have to walk to the bottom and add more time on the car. My sound reasoning won and we all ordered these salmon pesto sandwiches which were....AMAZING! Everyone continued to mention these sandwiches for the rest of the trip. <br />

This is everyone at dinner on their first day in Germany. Dale and Cindy were troopers and went out to the old town for dinner. They must have been very tired after their long flight that arrived that morning.<br />

After a quick stop at the grocery store, we went back to the apartment to wait for Eric. Dale and Cindy enthusiastically agreed to play 'Marburg Monopoly' which Eric has never wanted to play with me. I skillfully dominated the game. This is Dale looking sad over the loss. However, he is not very good at looking sad so he just looks kind of creepy.<br />

Eric came home and much rejoicing was in order. I cooked dinner and we spent the rest of the evening playing board games which is a Walkingshaw favorite pastime.</div>

The next night, Eric and I went to the Marburg Dolphins women's basketball game. Dale and Cindy were pooped after another long day of Marburg touristing and decided to stay in for some down time. Eric and I went to the much anticipated playoff game. We lost, but it was still a lot of fun, and we still had time to play a game or two with Dale and Cindy when we got back.<br />

We also rented paddle boats! Eric and I have been meaning to do this for a while. We got two boats, however both of them had really awful steering. Eric and Cindy's looks like a real boat, but trust me, it was much worse than ours!<br />

The museum was not really about the history of pigs; </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was more a showcase of pig memorabilia. Like pigs in art!</div>

<br />
Adaline and I shared a room and one of the first things I learned about said room was that the overhead light did not work very well. Basically it had a sensor in it and would only turn on if there was another light present, meaning if it was dark it would not turn on. I quickly asked why she had not bought a lamp; she responded that she had not thought of that. I then accused her of being a boy and made us go lamp shopping.<br />
<br />
Here is the lighting section at a home department store in the mall. Probably not as exotic as you would have expected.<br />

Here is our new green lamp! It was the cheapest. The lamp did not do such a good job of lighting the entire room; but what it did do is provide enough light that the overhead light would now turn on. Mission accomplished! <br />

Adaline is a bit of a coffee addict so when we walked by 'Willy Wonder's' coffee shop there was no question as to whether to go in or not. I ordered this hot chocolate which was probably the best hot chocolate I have ever had. I think it was closer to drinking fudge than milk. <br />

We also did a big outing to the grocery store. Lexis went to Preschool for half the day, then usually Troy and Stephanie would pick her up and take her out to lunch. This is why most of the pictures just have the baby.<br />

Now it is time for the sad part of the trip- I came down with a cold very soon after I arrived. Cold medication is not sold in grocery stores, you have to go to a specialized pharmacy. (This is just like how it is in Germany.) I was able to go in and charade to the nice man my symptoms and buy some cold medicine. Adaline is posing quite nicely for me after my big purchase. A box of cold medicine that had 20 pills cost me about 1 Euro. Things are very cheap if you are a westerner in Turkey.<br />

During the height of my cold I was not doing well. After our trip out I promptly took some of my medicine and took a nap. I woke up to discover Adaline had made these cinnamon rolls and a delicious dinner for everyone. She was also delivering me tea and hot chocolate in bed. Adaline to the rescue! <br />

A few months before I came to Turkey I was skyping with Adaline and I met Lexis. She was very quiet and didn't say much but Adaline told me she loves Candy Land. I asked her if she would play with me when I came to visit and she ran away from the screen. On day two of my stay she asked me if I remembered telling her I would play Candy Land with her. I played several games with her over the course of my stay. <br />

The next day I had a long travel itinerary of car, train, bus, plane, subway, train, and a walk home from the train station at 12:30 AM to top it off. The long travel was totally worth it though. I had a great time in Turkey and was only sorry I could not stay longer.<br />
<br />
If you too are wishing for more Turkey check out Adaline's blog about her stay in Konya! You will also be able to see a decent picture of Lexis- something I did not manage. Probably a picture of Troy as well- something else I somehow failed to do. <a href="http://theturkeytrot.blogspot.com.tr/" target="_blank">http://theturkeytrot.blogspot.com.tr/ </a>Allisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14315293000661292870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281792744745409491.post-76703393592875163342014-03-09T10:51:00.000-07:002014-03-10T03:12:27.976-07:00Turkey Part 1After such a long vacation I will now blog about... another vacation! My good friend Adaline is working as a nanny in Turkey for a few months. It is only a short 3 hour flight from Frankfurt to Turkey so I decided to go visit for a week.<br />
<br />
Even though it is a short flight, there was a lot of train / bus / flight / cab action to get to Ankara, Turkey so it ended up being quite a long travel day. When I arrived mid afternoon, Adaline was at the train station to pick me up! We dropped off my luggage and headed to my first Turkish basketball game! Here is Adaline, Stephanie, and the girls outside the stadium. (Adaline is holding Aliah, all you can see of Lexis is one foot hanging out of the stroller). <br />

After we were done eating we got a nice surprise, the owner of the basketball team paid for our dinner! He came over and we thanked him. Then we had a long car drive to Konya. We got home pretty late but it was a good first day in Turkey!<br />
<br />
Here is Adaline the next day ready for our big outing. She is outside the front door of the very nice condo complex.<br />

We walked 'into town' to do a little shopping and grab some lunch. We were on the very edge of Konya so we were not very close to downtown. Adaline wanted food that did not resemble a kebab so we took a chance on Pizza Mario.<br />

Coming from someone who just spent a week in Rome dining on some pretty delicious pizza, I was a little disappointed in Pizza Mario. Adaline, who has been living on Turkish food for a month, was thrilled. <br />

The next day Stephanie gave us a ride to the neighboring village Sille. We stopped to get gas (the only thing that is actually expensive in Turkey) and the gas attendants gave us all this hot beverage. This is a kind of traditional drink in Turkey, however ours smelled like diesel so we politely accepted and disposed of them down the street a ways. Adaline was the bravest and gave it a try before we dumped them; the verdict was not good. <br />

We really didn't have much to go on but there are patches of fading frescoes and it feels old. The area has a lot of history so it is conceivable that it is very old.<br />

No English on the menu (unlike Europe, most people in Turkey do not speak English!). I ordered the thing that said 'kebab' and this is what I got. It was actually incredibly delicious. Chicken, mushrooms, and peppers stir fried in oil and spices- it even had melted cheese on top! (Melted cheese is not a very Turkish thing). Adaline ordered something that did not say kebab (she didn't know what she was ordering either) and she pretty much got the same thing but with beef instead of chicken. It is still unclear if we got what we ordered or if the staff took initiative to give us something they thought we would like. Either way we were happy.<br />

Another reason to go to Sille was the handmade pottery. Here is Adaline trying to decide what to get. This was a nice little shop that made the pottery right there. We saw a guy working the pottery wheel and a lady painting the pottery. <br />

Today we had to double up our museum viewing. I normally only like to do one museum a day but because of the holiday schedule we had to do two on our last day in Rome. We had tried to go to the Capitoline Museum on December 31st but they had closed in the early afternoon for the holiday.<br />

Outside the Galleria Borghese! This is located in the park we walked around the day before. You are only allowed in the museum every 2 hours with a pre-purchased ticket that has a reserved time on it. There are only 300 slots per 2 hour time frame. One of the first things we did when we got to Rome was go online and buy our tickets. We definitely should have bought them sooner because this was the soonest we could get in for the week- all the other times were sold out!<br />

No pictures were allowed in the museum but it was probably the best museum I have ever been to. The art was amazing and the 300 people spread out so no one area was crowded.<br />
<br />
Here is a link about the Galleria Borghese: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galleria_Borghese" target="_blank">Click Here.</a><br />
<br />
There was a lot of amazing art at the museum; most notably some incredible sculptures by Bernini. (Click on each name if you would like to read more about them.)<br />

After the museum it was time to get our last dinner in Rome. We took the subway and made it back to the best pizza in Rome which had been previously closed. As you can see in the picture it looks a lot like our other favorite pizza place. The guy behind the counter gave us a full description of each pizza choice. It was a hard decision but I think we did alright!<br />

Overall this was one of our most memorable trips we have ever taken. It was very long but really amazing too. I still can't believe how many ruins we were able to fit in. Cruising was a lot of fun and our time in Rome was very special. It was great but we were both looking forward to our quiet German life again. I declare Skipping Christmas to be a total success!<br />

This was our first day riding the bus. We had done all walking up until now. We were pretty wary about taking the bus in Rome because it is infamous for pickpocketing tourists. Luckily we did not have any issues. (Side note- there are literally no bus times in Rome. You just wait until one shows up.) <br />

Our first stop was a small church that has a famous Bernini statue, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecstasy_of_Saint_Teresa" target="_blank">the Ecstasy of Saint Teresa</a>. The statue was very beautiful and easy to stop by and see. All churches in Rome are open long hours and are all free. It is very easy to see tons of world class art without paying much besides a few donations.<br />

The basement of the museum hosts the world's largest coin collection. Literally thousands of coins tracing Italy's history. There was a lot of interesting information about money reform over the centuries. Eric LOVED this part of the museum. I zipped through the coins pretty quickly and ended up waiting for him on a bench for a good 20 minutes.<br />

We hiked up a hill where we found a good view of the city. There were a ton of locals there as well so I think we made the right decision. There were three large firework shows going on at different locations in the city. We were able to see all of them plus hundreds of individual fireworks going off. Our pictures do not do it justice but it was very neat and memorable. <br />

We had to be careful about planning our time- since we were in Rome on a Sunday / Monday and News Year's Day lots of things were closed. Consequently we pretty much had to do the ruins on Monday, even though it was raining! Our first real rain of the trip.<br />
<br />
On our walk to the Colosseum we saw this charming episode. I don't even think the pigeons knew they were being watched. After a while the cat couldn't handle it and began attacking random things on the porch- it was pretty funny. <br />

We made it! There was an epically long line to get into the Colosseum- like a Vatican Museum, two-hours-long line. Fortunately, the previous day at the tourist bureau we had purchased the 'Roma Pass' which let us walk right in! Even though we ended up losing a few euros on the Roma Pass, it was so totally worth it. <br />

The pictures make it hard to tell but it was pretty much drizzling the entire time. I had a coat with a hood but Eric had no hood. He was pretty miserable but this was really our only chance to see the ruins so we had to push on. We walked by a trash can that magically had an umbrella sitting on top of it. This is proof of how miserable Eric was in the rain; when he picked up the broken umbrella a used Kleenex fell out and he didn't even care. Eric has an umbrella now!<br />

We actually spent a few hours wandering around the Forum. Once again there was no map and all the interpretative signs were in Italian. We think we saw most of it but some sunshine and a guidebook would have improved our experience. <br />

We slept in and had a nice little breakfast in our room. The breakfasts were a little hard to adjust to. We went from very large protein heavy meals on the boat to much lighter, sugarier affairs in Rome. Even with a ton of pastries I bet our Rome breakfasts had less calories...<br />

Today was Sunday which is a tricky day in Europe. Lots of things are closed so you need to plan ahead a bit. We decided to go to the Vatican museum. It just so happened that it was the one day a month that the museum is free and since lots of other things are closed it seemed like a good idea. We were expecting a ton of people but the truth was much more sobering. We arrived in line a few minutes before the museum even opened. Here are some pictures of the line. <br />

Had we known it was going to take us 2 HOURS to get in we would have done something different. Or at least arrived earlier. Even though it was the longest and largest line I have ever stood in it was nice to save the 40 Euros on admission (normally it is about 20 Euros each!). However, at the time it was really not a fun experience. Do not go on the free Sunday!!!<br />
<br />
Once we were in it was not as crowded as you would expect. It was still busy but pretty manageable. We started with the sculpture hall.<br />

This is the famous Laocoön statue. It was in an outdoor courtyard! It was covered but you would expect more protection for such an old and famous sculpture. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laoco%C3%B6n_and_His_Sons" target="_blank">Click here</a> for more info on the statue if you like.<br />

Eric really likes mosaic floors so I take a lot of pictures for him. This one was special because it has mushrooms and a truffle finding pig. <br />

No pictures were allowed in the Sistine Chapel. It was reminiscent of being back in line though with how many people were jam packed in. The chapel did live up to the hype and was exceptional to look at in person.<br />

No tourist trip is complete without a trip to the gift shop! I purchased this puzzle of the School of Athens! Doing a puzzle in Germany is a real luxury, it is one of the few good things about leaving the kitties back home. (That and a reprieve from constant cat hair on your clothes). I don't have to worry about someone taking a nap on it!<br />

After several hours at the museum (and in line!) we were HUNGRY. We did not have lunch (no time!) so we were very ready for an early dinner. We found an Italian restaurant! The restaurant diversity in Rome is not vast- 90% of the restaurants I saw were pizza and pasta places. Not that I am complaining- I am always down for some pasta! (Or in this case, pizza.)</div>

After the fountain we popped into this gelato place. Gelato stands in Rome are almost as frequent at pizza places, we got lucky and picked one that was AMAZING!! <br />

So amazing that I bought a second one!!! That is not a peace sign- but round 2! All their flavors are made in the shop and don't use preservatives. I got an 80% cocoa that was really rich and delicious.</div>

This is the place name on their napkin. I want to tell everyone I know to go! Eric said it was the best gelato he had ever had, I maintain that it is just as good as our gelato place in Corvallis. <br />

Shortcut through the Vatican on our way back to the B&B. We took this shortcut about 10 times and every time Eric brought up how we were detouring through a foreign country... <br />

No real boat activity to report. We woke up and had our usual breakfast at the buffet and hurried off to finish packing. We had to get off by 10am or so; it was a stressful day for the cleaning staff because a new cruise was starting that day! We carried our luggage off the boat and took the free cruise bus into town. We were back in Civitavecchia so we knew how to easily get to the train station. We bought our train tickets to Rome (I think half the cruise took that train to Rome) and had an uneventful 45 minute trip into the city.<br />
<br />
Our bed and breakfast was close to our train stop so we were able to walk there pretty easily. This was a B&B I had booked online and it turned out to be great!<br />

The owner explained to us that B&B's in Italy are not allowed to serve food that is not prepackaged. (Don't quite understand this one- home cooked food is part of the B&B appeal!) There were 4 rooms of guests and a communal kitchen. We were not allowed to cook food ourselves but there was a large fridge provided with shelves labeled with our room numbers. We ended up going to a local grocery store and buying some fruit and yogurt to help supplement breakfast. The traditional Italian breakfast (so we were told) is basically coffee and a pastry which was not going to cut it for me, especially after the massive breakfasts we had been eating on the boat.<br />

We ate a snack of breakfast food and tea and then headed out. With so much to see in Rome we wanted to maximize as much time as possible. Our B&B was only about a 10 minute walk to the Vatican so we decided to start there.<br />

Walking around the interior of the dome was pretty quick, waiting in line to get to walk around the outside of the dome was not quick. It was also extremely cramped and I found myself getting claustrophobic. The curved dome wall was not helping. This was another instance of things that would never be allowed in the US. The space was extremely narrow, a million people, and no emergency exit. There were a lot of little windows we shuffled past and we were very high up. It was hard not to think about earthquakes...<br />

We finally made it! Once we were at the top it was a lot more standing in line. The million people on the stairs were now outside- progress was slow walking around the outside. <br />

Going to the top of the basilica was very cool but required a lot of patience. The line to get back down was just as long as it was to get up. The whole experience took a lot more time than I was originally anticipating. I am glad we did it on this first day. Here is Eric walking away from the Vatican on our way to find dinner. <br />

We found a nice Italian place (shocker!) and had pizza. It was kind of sad paying for dinner... On the way back the lighting was nice and we took some scenic shots of the city. </div>

Overall a good use of our first day. Considering it was kind of a travel day I was really pleased with what we accomplished! And the weather was beautiful which always helps. <br />

<b>Naples</b></div>
<br />
Our last full day on the boat! The boat docked in Naples which we did not really see any of. The real attraction is Pompeii- only a short train ride away. We were able to latch onto some more savvy cruisers who had figured out how to buy tickets and catch the train. We were able (with their help) to easily and cheaply get to Pompeii. Pompeii was extremely cool, and extremely big. The only way to get a map (if you had come unprepared like we did- I was envious of other people who carried photo copies of library book maps) was to buy the 10 Euro audio guide. We are cheap so we decided to wander.<br />

We had enough time to hit this coffee shop where you could get free internet! We had had no food since breakfast, so taking a snack break was much needed. Eric proclaimed it the best espresso he had ever had. <br />

<b>At Sea</b> </div>
<br />
Both days 8 and 9 were 'at sea'. We were far away from Rome and had to travel a fair distance to get back. Also during these two days there was a large storm which made being out on deck unappealing. The boat was rocking quite a bit and the wind was so strong at one point they closed down the top deck entirely. The storm also brought a bit of rain (our first of the trip) so as a result these two days were very low key. Low key was good after our intense site seeing. We went to one of the restaurants for breakfast- something we had been meaning to do.<br />

I also did some more Zumba! This is the lounge where they held it. It was also the site of a line dancing class I dragged Eric to (he had fun!).<br />

There was also a lot of reading and blog prepping that went on. While we were sitting here a Q and A session began with the captain and head engineer. This is something we normally would not have gone to but it actually was very interesting. We learned a lot of cool things about the boat and by the end of it we had put our books down and were paying full attention.</div>

<br />
On the second day the extreme boat rocking started to get to me so I spent many hours reading in bed. I think it was affecting many people because it was a bit of a ghost ship when you walked around. There was an afternoon magic show we went to, and we also saw some really cool acrobats (think Cirque du Soleil) one evening. There was also a grand finale type show that was very cool and entertaining. This was followed by the special all chocolate dessert buffet!<br />

Days at sea don't generate a lot of pictures but they were good days overall. It was nice to have the break from all the touristing and enjoy some of the amenities offered on the boat!Allisonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14315293000661292870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281792744745409491.post-56774637868891940972014-01-13T13:23:00.002-08:002014-01-13T13:23:37.369-08:00Skipping Christmas - Day 7<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Istanbul Day Two</b></div>
<br />
Since the boat stayed over night in Istanbul we were able to get a nice early start the next morning. The palace was closed this day so our top priority was Hagia Sophia. Hagia Sophia is very old and has been many different kinds of churches. Now it is a museum. I am really glad we got there right when it opened- we only had to wait in a line of a bout 40 people. When we were exiting there was a very long line wrapping around the block!<br />

We actually spent quite a long time in the museum even though I don't have as many pictures as I normally do. It had very nice collections but an absolutely awful layout that was always putting you in a dead end- forcing you to backtrack through miles of exhibit.<br />
<br />
Turkey is on the Turkish Lira (inconvenient when everywhere else has been on the Euro). So we spent our last Lira cash on this amazing Turkish Delight shop. The kid behind the counter was really nice and gave us a ton of samples. It was all amazing! <br />

A giant fortress thing! We saw people walking along the wall so it accepts tourists! That is the major downside to the cruise- not enough time on shore...<br />

The river cruise was great! Eric said it was his favorite part of Istanbul. We took a short version but there are longer ones that Rick Steves recommends. There was shoreline on both sides with lots of fancy hotels, mosques, mansions, fortresses, and palaces to look at. After the cruise it was getting dark and we both really wanted to get back to the large boat (hungry, cold, cranky because we were out of Turkish Delight) but we pushed through the pain and walked to the Grand Bazaar.</div>

It was really neat- and huge! We had spent all our Lira so we were not able to really shop but I definitely could have. It was also really weird because the entrance we entered had no power (temporary power outage). So we were walking the Bazaar in the dark. Some shops had lights and others had generators so there was enough light to get around- it was still very surreal. We did not linger long because we had to get back on the boat soon. I wish we could have spent more time there but I was glad we made ourselves go.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Back on the boat we treated ourselves to a little bit of down time, snack buffet and went to the Christmas variety show- because it was Christmas eve! The show was fun and then we went to a restaurant where we both got turkey, stuffing and potatoes.</div>

I had planned on going to the church service they were holding but it was not being held until midnight and after a full day of walking I fell asleep long before. Not a very traditional Christmas but a very memorable one- Christmas in Istanbul!</div>

<b>Istanbul Day One</b></div>
<br />
The boat did not get into port until early afternoon which meant we got to spend a relaxing morning sleeping in and taking our time. I went to Zumba class (Eric refused to come) and we both ate a large lunch to get ready for the afternoon ahead. Neither Eric or I had been to Istanbul and we were not sure what to expect. Even though we had been in Turkey the day before we were on a guided tour in the hills, not really being exposed to true Turkish culture. Right away we could tell Istanbul was great. It felt very European and had a nice relaxed atmosphere. Picture stop<b> </b>on our way to the palace (our boat is in the background). <br />

This open area was once the Hippodrome. This Egyptian obelisk looked brand new- we still can't believe it is an original from about 1500 BC. <br />

There are two Medusa heads that are column bases in the back. One is upside down, the other on her side. According to the brochure there is much scholarly debate and mystery as to why this is so.<br />

It was dark at this point and things on our to-do list were mostly closed so we headed back to the boat. We enjoyed a 'snack' from the snack buffet. (The boat labeled 'snack' food always had burgers, pizza, sandwiches, salads, cookies etc. It never really was just a snack). We sat outside again- best views and no one was there because of the cold!<br />

After our down time we went to the magic show! It was in the theater (where we had become regulars at the evening entertainment). The show was great! Some of the tricks we figured out but some we could not... it was a very professional and entertaining operation. All the shows always have two showings (usually a 7:30 and a 9:30) which allowed for a lot of flexibility in our schedule. We did the early showing and then hit one of the restaurants for our dinner.<br />

<b>Izmir</b></div>
<br />
The boat docked in Izmir, Turkey for the day. The main attraction here is not actually Izmir (which is a pretty large city on the coast) but rather the ancient Greek ruins of Ephesus. The ruins are not conveniently located (public transportation will not get you there) so we opted to sign up for a boat "excursion". For every port stop there are a wide variety of excursions one can sign up for, ranging from basic transportation to all day private tours. The one we signed up for had a couple stops, the first one being to the 'House of the Virgin Mary'.<br />
<br />
If you would like all the hazy details feel free to click <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_the_virgin_mary" target="_blank">here</a>. The short version is, based on some bible interpretation and the visions of a blind nun, this is now the reconstructed house of where Mary lived. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here I am waiting in line, extremely skeptical and already wishing I was back on the boat.</div>
