Turkish Delights

Turkey- I officially decided that Turkey is my new favorite place. The city of Istanbul was a great intro to Europe and its culture, the views are nothing short of breathtaking, and i have a new found love for Mosques and churches as well as the wonderful culture of Turkey. To call our recent adventure "delights" is simply an understatement.






Just chillin' in Istanbul, next to the Blue Mosque, and the Hagia Sophia. 
Dane and I inside the Blue Mosque


Ferry ride on the Bosphorus


Rachel, Makara, Erin, I, and SJ on the shores of Canakkale









Of course, the classic jumping pics at Troi
Pergamum


Assos- part of the journey's of Paul

Ephesus- See Bible Picture.

Looking out onto the ancient wonder of the world-The Temple of Artimas. 


After our Turkish adventures, we finally arrived home at the JC. I could definitely get use to coming home to Jerusalem. Life here just couldn't get better, i just love everyone here so very much, to say the least we are the closest of friends. I am learning and growing more than i ever could have imagined, I have the best of examples surrounding me everyday, and i feel like I am growing closer to my Savior.
