Trip to Turkey: Day 3 Istanbul to Troy

Today we spent most of the day on the bus.  I am not sure where my patience pills went but at times people got on my nerves.  Don't worry I kept my calm.

We ate lunch at a dock on the Dardanelles.  It was beautiful.

Then we took the Ferry across the water.  It was sooo beautiful.  My camera was on the bus so no pictures.  But I loved the ride.  I would love to live on the beach here.

Then we went to Troy--yep the place in the Iliad.  They even had the REAL Trojan horse there!  I think the pictures speak for themselves.


In the Trojan horse!
In the ruins of the city.
I think I won the battle.
What would Troy be without some gory death!
Kaitlyn and Leslie!
Classic.  Troy the city--Troy Bolton.  One and the same!
Can you tell what is wrong with this picture?  Bonus points if you can!
Next up--our hotel in Canakkale. Yep a hotel on the beach! It was beautiful! At one point I was in the water taking model shots of people on the dock--I am such a good photographer that I will do anything for a shot. At one point I hiked up my skirt so far that my slip showed--so scandalous. Everyone laughed at me. Including myself.
With Jessica and Lauren on the dock!
Bigger group!
Biggest group.
Leslie on Elyse.
In the water!
Dock!
Yoga on the beach!
That night we had a bonfire and dance party on the beach with our Turkish guide Fatih. It was pretty fun to dance in the sand.
