bebelog

Wednesday, August 04, 2004


I know that I haven't been writing any notes in English since early July, and if you cannot read Turkish, bebelog does not make sense for you anymore. I had decided to take a vacation from English during our Turkey trip. :)

Here is a short version of what I have been writing during the last three weeks or so:
- On July 9th, Duru flew to Istanbul, Turkey, for a three week vacation.
- All pictures are here
- The next day, she travelled to Behramkale/Assos to stay at my parent's summer house.
- Five days later, she went to Yeni Sakran, to stay at Pinar's parents' summer house. - She played in her small pool. The water was a little bit cold for her.
- For the last 10 days, she was in Istanbul.
- Her grandparents spent as much time as possible with her. She played with them a lot; she learned a few new tricks, such as sitting by her self, crawling better, clapping hands, etc.
- She ate tomatos and yogurt for the first time, and like them a lot.
- She met some of her close relatives, mother's and father's site, and played with her second (?) cousins. [Her father's and mothers' cousins' children, etc.]
- She visited Assos, Sakran, Foca; and in Istanbul, went to Ortakoy, Etiler, Besiktas, Suadiye, Goztepe, Kucukyali, Acibadem, Park Orman, and few other neighborhoods.
- She seems to have associated 'mamma' with food.

She was jetlagged for the last few days. Her sleep periods are OK now.
