An apology: I never got around to going to the bazaar on Thursday, and for that I’m truly sorry. I spent the day in Kemer with my close friend who was visiting from Denmark, and I thought I’d be back in time to hit the bazaar, but as often happens with good friends, we milked the time until well after dark. And then I made the excuse that about 80% of you were probably away on Thursday with your families anyway, so I that’s how I let myself off the hook. <sheepish look>
So here’s the consolation prize— a few photos from our day out in Kemer:
We went inside the mosque, and the imam was nice enough to let us take photos. The Kemer mosque is small, but it’s beautifully decorated.
No seats in a mosque, you just kneel directly on the floor.
I was surprised at the amount of bling they have in there now. The mosque has had a remodel since last I saw it.
In fact, Kemer has changed a lot over the past two years since I lived there. This clock tower, for instance, didn’t exist when I was a resident.
But some things will never change— no peon schmucks allowed.
I hope you guys have all had a great week— I’m writing like a madman and drinking a lot of wine. It’s fantastic.
