More of Istanbul in January

We stopped in Ortaköy to grab some kumpir and a kiss on the docks.

We went bowling with Alex and his sister Mary. We finally found the bowling place, and it was the sketchiest looking entrance to a bowling alley we'd ever seen, but it opened up into a nice place. We were just a little skeptical at first of the creepy-back-alley entryway.

Peppers and tomatoes in a vegetable display at the morning market next to school that we frequented after my hideous environmental exam. It's on a tiny, winding cobblestone street with each side lined with vendors. A truck was trying to back up down the space between the stalls and got massively stuck and huge cabbages were escaping from the back of it and rolling down hill among the feet and legs on the hill.

Sunrise breaking over Asia and the Bosphorus as we walked up the hill on the way up to Etiler.
