Sarah, Quinne, and Quinne's Mom, Chantal came to stay with us for two weeks. We went lots of places, and saw lots of stuff. Quinne and I took a lot a selfies, and of course I had to share mine here. Some of the selfies are extremely grainy, but that's OK. We had an awesome time. :)
Yay she's here! (first day)
Gelibolu Saturday bazaar.
At the lighthouse in Gelibolu

Next day. On the ferry, headed to Troy (and beyond)
Standing in front of the Brad Pitt trojen horse at Canakkale.
Troy, outside the creepy cave that we couldn't get into.

ISTANBUL
Standing in line for Topkapı Palace
Inside!
We found this mirror in the harem of the Topkapı Palace.
Of course we had to take a selfie in the mirror!
Walking through the Harem
Feet! (still harem)
I looked back and a bunch of other girls were doing this too. :P
Hagia Sophia! Seriously, I love this church!
But it makes me sad...
We ate lunch on the tour at this neat restaurant.
There were lots of lamps, old cameras (!!), and nicknacks
Underground cistern, I'd never been there before.
It was really cool, but the fish were creepy...
At the Hippodrome.
Not much to see there, but the story was interesting.
Blue Mosque.
It's a mosque so us ladies had to cover our heads (yeah OK) and then those of us who we wearing capris/shorts had to put on these robe things (Seriously?).
LAST DAY
Taxi selfie!
Outside the Grand Bazaar
Supper under the Galata Bridge.
(There was a guy outside who was trying to catch a budgie.
Apparently it had escaped from the bird market.
Once he caught the bird he sent his friend to go buy another budgie and a cage.)
Random selfie in a tiny grocery store
where we were buying chocolate
Last selfies.
These ladies' flight left early so we had to say goodbye the night before.
The light in that room had a motion censer and it kept turning off :P
I can honestly say that I've never taken that many selfies in that time span, my life. It was fun, but I don't want to do that again any time soon!
