Stormy Day... Again

Remember I told you about the little storm before going to Bodrum. Here is a picture of the front of our house taken right before leaving for Bodrum :









The after photo : the tree is gone.









Today another little storm stroke Istanbul. While we were seating on the outside terrace of The House Cafe enjoying our breakfast in Ortaköy, sunbathing, we saw this big black cloud coming toward us. We decided to leave, but I wanted to take a photo o f the Bosphorus first to show you the waves when a big wave stroke and fell on Selcuk. He had to get into a store to buy new clothes.

Stormy Day

Big quick storm in Istanbul today, a lot of the trees in our neighbourhoods fell down. It only lasted half an hour. This photos was shot down our road.

Day One : Garden Party

After a good night of sleep we wake up to enjoy this beautiful landscape from our room. We don't actually stay in Bodrum, the city, but Bodrum the peninsula. The place we're staying at is called Gümüşlük and is unpronounceable by many foreigners. Well it helps if you have French or German knowledge, you read the 'u' as French 'u' or as German 'ü' and try Gumushluk.





I started my morning by a our of the garden. I saw this interesting Pomegranate with what looks like fruits but they're actually flowers. Our tree apparently does not produce any fruits.
here are the steps as the flower blooms.

























































Another landscape view from the garden.









Cactus flower

kitty cat

We saw those cats today outside the window, We thought of maybe getting the left one. We'll see. He's adorable.











I then went to Kadiköy for a job interview. They started to decorate the streets :
