The Adventures in Istanbul with Ms.Wellz Continue.....

The day started with a lot of stairs.


(Too many in my opinion)


Thank goodness for saying like this, really helps me get through the day.
(Psssst - what the HECK does that say?)


Lauren, lost again...but that's okay - no stairs going up!


DANG IT - spoke too soon.


Maybe I can use that ladder....


To go into the bushes...forever?


Running along the water.


Hello Mr. Boat.


Hmmm - makes me want to take a boat ride.


Here fishie-Fishie-FISHIE!!!
(You had to watch Sesame Street, Ernie and Bert to get that one. Classic!)


Just a couple of knights in armour, guarding the door.
No biggy.


Love this.


Coffee with FRESH oranges right beside...really?
Never in the desh - always in la Turkey.


A little obsessed with the graffiti.


Magic place to be buried.


Bow ties are BACK and ALWAYS were in style.


So many streets to take pictures of.


Always coloured flower pots, always.


I mean COME ON, just LOOK at that building!


My "happy" place.


Coffffffffeeeeeeee time!


Ahhhh, je t'aime rue inconnue.


Blinded by the light.


*WORK TIME*


Hello my beautiful little friend.


Self portrait....must have COFFFFEEEE~!


Did I mention I love this city? 


YES - those ARE coffee mugs hanging from string and made into LAPS!!!!


The original "Mr. CatMan"
(teacher thing...GoNoodle Anyone?)


Not enough people.


Too beautiful to be a restaurant...sorry, won't eat there!


My date for the night.


Turkish men LOVE posing for pictures....incredible.


Amazing musicians, a long way from home.


VEGAN DINNER did you say?!?


Awkward.


BOOM. 
Another day DONE = exhausted.


Bed time people....and no, it's like 11:30 pm....almost.

Sigh*

The life of a teacher who always wakes up early, naturally.

I Spy With My Little Eye...

Let's play a game.

Can you spot what is a little different about this picture?


Are you seeing this?


Faster than the speed of light.


Oh come ON!
(indulge me a little) 
I have NEVER seen something so big!


Well, okay...there are other things that seemed very BIG that day!
(Mou-hahahhah!)
Awwww just kidding.


Loved this adorable guy.


Wish I could say he was enjoying me as much as I was enjoying him!



Pretty sure he was more fascinated with his own STUD-ly picture!


Babies are GREAT!
Big dogs are even COOLER!


No Lauren.
You are not getting EITHER ONE anytime soon.
FACT.

Life in the City Center - Day 1

Pinch me, because I am still dreaming...


...this is MY room?


My terrace?!?


Did somebody say "COFFEE!?!?!"


Pure joy.


What will I do today?


And the walking begins...


Vintage shopping...of COURSE!


Does taking photos of streets ever get boring?


Hmmm, best piece of advice I've heard in a while.


Done and done!


More street shots!


Unfinished bridge...and me lost in a weird part of the city - haha!
(doesn't take me long to get lost!)


Back in the centre of things...don't mind if I do!


*breaktime*


Ummm, really? Artist at work?


Excuse me Mr.Ladybug, I'm too busy watching art being made
to appreciate the art that is your natural colour.


Oh-la-la-la!


Huge gay pride marches, dancing and good old fashion FUN!
(police where everywhere, not amused but who can blame them...they didn't get to dance!)


More street shots....loved all the flag and turkish national pride.


Hmmmm - say no more, say no more.


Ahhh, now this is MY kind of store!


Bahahha!


Street art.


Get over the STREETS lauren...bahahhah!


It will happen, going to Paris that is, but not yet...


For right now, I am too much in LOVE with Istanbul.
(although my feet hate me)


Elevator selfie after walking for 5 hours....happy as a pig in (insert appropriate word)

Bahahh!
