Rona Landmans’ Thoughts On Turkey
Thanksgiving is just around the corner and it’s time for turkey!!! While most bloggers at this time are blogging about ‘Turkey’- the bird, I am taking a little detour. For a change, I am blogging about ‘Turkey’- the charming Mediterranean country.
In the second week of October, I had the opportunity to spend 6 days in Turkey. Our first destination was Istanbul. There, we spent most of our time site seeing, visiting museums and the famous bazaars.
Rona At Spice Bazaar, Istanbul
Had champagne & cocktails at the Sunset Grill & Bar overlooking the Bosphorus river in Istanbul
Spent two days in heaven at The Gloria Serenity Spa & Resort,Antalya. Relaxing during the day and discoing at night on the water on this beautiful floating barge.
Ruins at the City of Ephesus – Most well preserved Roman ruins in the eastern Mediterranean. The mosaic floors of the houses in Ephesus, with its intricate Turkish designs are a work of art. The Turkish furniture, rugs and accessories reflect similar intricacy and attention to detail.
Throughout the trip, I picked up some interesting souvenirs and gifts. Apple tobacco for a friend to use in her ‘hoopa’. From Antalya – handmade jewelry, jewelry boxes, & old evil eye spiritual token. Although the trip was a little short, overall, it was wonderful !!!!
