We flew into Trabzon last night and are now in Sumela. We visited the Sumela Monastery this morning. We rented a car and are now mobile!
The Black Sea Coast is a lot like Northern California. The evil orb no longer pummels us with invisible rays.
We stopped at a restaurant in Cosandere and had fresh trout. We met a young Turk named Ramazan who was so excited to practise his English he invited us to stay at his home for tomorrow.
Jim just got a haircut and shave and is smooth-cheeked and happy!

It sounds like you are going to great pains to keep your blog current. Good for family, stressful for your vacation. We opted for a "ten day delay" post of our blog stories. According to our blog, we are only in Week 4. We actually arrived on May 1, and will stay until July 29.
We will return to Istanbul on June 29. If you are available, we'll buy you lunch at Turkistan Aşevi. South east end of Hippodrome. We rented an apartment from the restaurant owner, Burak. A young guy and TOTALLY Type-A. Nice though. His third floor apartment rented for 2500 YTL and looked on on the Marmara. We were there for the first month, then moved "downstairs" where it was only 1500 YTL per month.
We're heading to Silivri on July 1. I enjoyed your Blog.
If you ever get to the Andalucian area of Spain, drop us a line. That's where we're living now... previously Arizona.
