Quickly, let me run through my last day in Holland. Guy's mum took me on the train into Amsterdam and we went to the Van Gogh Museum and walked around the center of town. Then I took a tour of the Anne Frank House, which was very meaningful. The city is very pretty but I'm sure I would've appreciated its beauty more had I gone on a sunny day ... instead, Thursday had miserable, drizzling weather.
I'm now in Istanbul with Aaron! I'm too exhausted to describe everything we've done in our one full day here, but we've hit many big sights. We went to the Aya Sophya and Blue Mosque and then walked around the "New District" in the late afternoon. It is very beautiful in a mostly standard Mediterrannean way, but is also steeped in its own individual history. We have two more days here and I hope I don't pass out from exhaustion before then.
Much love to everyone and hope to write more soon!

I can't wait to see all the photos. Do go out and exhaust yourself but save $$ one owala bar should give you enough energy for the day. :-) Now you know what I meant about "eating" is not that important once you are on the go. I love you and miss you.
