From Struer to Istanbul

This morning we went back from Struer to Copenhagen with this wonderful little plane. Then e spent 3 hours in the very nice Duty Free of the Copenhagen airport and took a plane back to Istanbul. It was nice to see the moon and the night rise on the left, and the sun setting on the right.

Denmark Day 02 : Struer - the Farm

Rainy day in Karup. We took a taksi to Struer, 50 km North West, the fare was pretty high, it coast 150 € to go there !


















The farm of...








Mr Peter Olufsen himself. Nephew of one of the founder, Svend Olufsen.He was kind enough to invite us all to eat in his house surrounded by Bang & Olufsen products.

Denmark Day 02 : Copenhagen

Before leaving for the airport I took a look outside around the hotel in order to have a better idea of the city, but again I couldn't see much. Shops were still closed, people were rushing at work. But in general the streets seemed pretty empty. Not very surprising for a city with a population of 500,000, compared to the (approximately) 15 million people leaving in Istanbul.









This house was built in 1623 !!








































Our wonderful plane that will bring us to Karup from where we'll then go to Struer, city of Bang & Olufsen. We will visit the factories, the farm and the museum.
Those of you who know I'm afraid of flying should know what I felt when I first saw the plane. But I was pretty cool and all went fine.

A Day at the Museum

Today I went to work and we went to the press conference given by Asus. They were presenting their new coming (to Turkey) eee PC. The press conference was held in the Rahmi Koç Museum where you can see some old mean of transport so we glanced around. The museum which is kind of a science museum also holds a temporary exhibition about the brain.










Citroen DS, Ekin's favorite





















An old Turkish car, Anadol Buggy built bu Otosan in the late 60's.
Like the logo 'Böcek' meaning 'insect'.






















































A marine steam engine













































A very large wagon



































Nice restrooms

Istanbul - Paris

Tonight we are in Paris. After 2 years and 2 months, it's good to be here.

This noon I went to Taksim and met with my dad whom I waited for an hour. He came back from work and had to get ready so in the meantime I took pictures around.


































We arrived at the airport in a hurry where Ekin was waiting for us. A quick stop at the Duty Free and we headed toward the plane.

















I hate those planes. McDonald Douglas. I don't trust them but the flight went pretty well.





























The plane landed right on time and my sister Celia was waiting for us at the airport and brought us back to their place where we're staying tonight and where I got so see my nephew Lucas again.











I feel really bad leaving our new cat Oreo alone at home. I could hear him meowing from the street. Thanks to Asli and Jake who will take care of him.
