Travels with Friends and Family - Turkey

So far during our time in Moldova,
we have had some amazing visits with family and friends.
The first was with Jess's mom, Mary, in December 20009/January 2010.
Christmas masa in Bardar, Moldova.















Another masa in Vasieni, Moldova.







Overlooking the village of Vasieni. Look for the blue steeples of the village church.











Istanbul, Turkey: atop our favorite restaurant (the Doy Doy) with a view of the Blue Mosque.

What an amazing trip!!! There are many more pictures - just ask Mary if you want to see them.
