from Bob
Dear Everyone that is interested,
I am having a great time here. Everything is going swell. I have been encouraged to journal each day. Below are some of my journal entries.
"By the time we boarded to leave for the JFK I was physically drained.I had been up for over 24 hours with E-Mergency [a vitamin energy booster which help me get through college] flowing through my veins. Luke and I went to BK for our last all American Burger. A Whopper w/no onion, no pickles, w/ extra ketchup and a large fry cost me $6.70! Ridiculous! Right before boarding for Istanbul I took two gel capsules of equate NightQuill. Let's just say that by the time I sat down on the plane and put my seat belt on, I was out."
"After the Hagia Sophia, we went to the Grand Bazaar. This is a huge market of various items. I loved it....it was worth it in order to barter with the shop owners. I did not buy anything, but I now have a good idea of what things cost next time I go. We then went out to eat, headed home, stopped for Baklava [amazing dessert], then went home. Great Day!"
"Luke is always willing to give valuable mathematical information after a calculation has been made. Thanks Luke."

Bob,
You never cease to make me laugh! I love you and can't wait to hear all about your trip!
Camden, Josiah and Trevor say "HI BOB!" Camden's really confused why you would go to "chicken." So his geography skills aren't the best yet...so what? :)
Trevor is walking all over the place and still says "bob-bob-bob" when the phone rings.
Love you! Hello to Mandy too!

Robby,
I am so glad you blogged:) I thought you knew better than to buy airport food...why didnt you pack a lunch?
Good idea about not buying anything initially - way to bargain shop! I love you and miss you.
BTW, how is your car running?
Love you,
P.B.

Robbie,
Wonderful to hear from you! I am not surprised that you didn't buy anything the first time you went shopping. What a wonderful experience you are having. I love you and miss you!!
Tell Mandy hello for me.
