Momentos
Saturday, August 23, 2008
We are trying to gather a meaningful souvenir from each country we visit. Portugal produced the bottle of wine from the generous farmer, which made it safely home via the Portuguese post. Since we were completely enchanted by Cappadocia, we wanted something to remember it by. Julie, the ex-pat photographer we met while staying at The Fairy Chimney, graciously volunteered to take our photos against Cappadocia’s lunar landscape. On Thursday we had an impromptu photo shoot, the perfect way to end our time in the region. The photos turned out great; we hope to get a few printed out when we return home. Check out Julie’s work – her travel photos are particularly cool – at www.juliebalsiger.com

Momentos? How ’bout a shoeshine kit from a “certain” shoe-shine guy in Istanbul. If Maikael can get his hands on it, I’ll pay the postage to get it home! Go get ‘em, Maikael!!!
At your suggestion, I visited Julie Balsiger’s web site. WOW! What beautiful work!! She certainly is an accomplished photographer. And thanks to Julie, I now know the “true” origin of Swiss Cheese. It comes from Swiss cows that are adorned with Swiss flags. I can only guess what dairy product comes from these beautiful bovines if they are milked in Swiss cottages.
