Eurasia Mega Tour 2026 - Day Twenty Three - From The Balcony And The Market

We are continuing to grow into and enjoying our new Turkish lifestyle. The heat has abated somewhat so we can make better use of the apartment's balcony. Our photography workshop leader gave us more homework, then scheduled time to work with us again last night which ended up being another hour and a half session. 

Last night with the coolness, I was on the balcony with the sun setting and decided to take a bunch of pictures. Then this morning we made our way to morning market. It was HUGE. We bought a bunch of produce, snacks, and cheese. Just another day in the Eldership Away Mission Life.

Eurasia Mega Trip 2026 - Day Twenty Two - Night Photos

For a number of reasons, we are not 'hitting it' in terms of getting out and doing a lot of things. Wife has some foot issues. It has been super hot. We are still figuring out how do go around the city to do things. Plus, we both have various projects we are working on that accompany us on our travels. As Wife put it to one of the children on our call this weekend, "We're just enjoying living the lifestyle."

However we still need to get out. With our photographic juices flowing from our recent workshop, and having seen the architectural lighting on many buildings here, I wanted to do a night shoot. This we did last night.  

 All of these are right around the complex where our apartment is
