We fondly called it Pragurkreece - Greece

Well...  now Greece isn't going to sound as great as it actually was, cause I pumped up Turkey so much.  And it was the last leg of our trip, and the last leg always gets a bit exhausting.  Shame.  But Greece was beauuutiful.  We relaxed in Samos for a few days and swam and ate moussaka and drank beer and wine.  Then flew to Athens and experienced the dodgy bit of town, did the walking tour, saw lots of ruins that we were NOT allowed to touch or walk on or pose by, ate more kebaps, flea marketed, and then our Hungarian air carrier brought our exhausted selves home.

Joel and Raych were so great to travel with and were game for anything!  We had a blast with them and it was so lovely to see them after such a long time.  Love you guys!

We fondly called it Pragurkreece - Turkey

Turkey was aaaaaamazing!  Seriously.  Go to Turkey.  Loved it.  Go.

Anyways, Turkey was at the top of my list before we came to Prague, so I've been excited to go for awhile and it did NOT let me down.  We were in Istanbul, Cappadocia area, Pamukkale, Kusadasi, and Ephesus.  Mosques, mixed grills, baths, fairy chimneys, ruins, kepaps (or kabobs or kebaps), travertines, ground that THE disciples walked on... A-MAZ-ing.  Kept us entertained for daaaayys.  We could have stayed longer..

We fondly called it Pragurkreece - Prague

Well, if any of you know Rachel or followed my links from before, you would have already seen some photos and read about our trip and laughed out loud, as Raych is a hilarious and fantastic user of the English language.  I... am not so good at the English part, however I do have a lot more photos.  So please check out her blog here, for pre-Gurkey fun.  And here for post Gurkey fun. And then her facebook album here.  (Don't really know if the fb one will work, but check it out.)  Thanks for being a great blogger, Raych!!

Loves. Leah
