Middle East
We celebrated the 4th of July today as best we could-- by singing all of the patriotic, American-related songs we could think of while riding in a van on an Istanbul highway.
Feeling so excited and happy to be here. Turkey is beautiful, rich, delicious, and friendly--and I've had the best food of my summer so far in the past two meals.
Right now, through my open widow, I am hearing the call to prayer shouted through loudspeakers. It sounds mournful, a bit like a cat crying into a microphone. And now I can go to sleep.
