Why it just might be time to come home ;)

(this is mostly just a joke...i will miss it greatly. i just wanted an excuse to post some of these pictures.)

My sun glasses broke :(
sad....


I go to museums and there have been quite a number of them over the past few months that i have liked a lot and this was one of them. i thought i would post a picture of me with my favorite artifact; we had a special connection due to our obvious resemblance........


I know how pitas are made.......in great detail....probably too much detail.

the pita bread bakery
[i feel a connection to pita bread having now spent a substantial amount of time in a land where it is prevalent and eating it pretty much every day]..........
THE DOUGH


THE CONVEYOR BELT
for the fresh hot pitas


THE SLOT
the hot pitas dropped down from this slot in the ceiling because the actual kitchen is upstairs....and the bakers sold them while still fresh.


Finding this creepy convent. yes, this is where they kept the nuns.


I found this sweet sign.

  1. I hear that a hot, fresh pita is nothing like the dry, stiff things we call pitas here. I wish that I could taste one. Could you bring me one? Wait...when you get here, it will have become one of those dry, stiff things!
