Sicily, Venice, Athens, Istanbul and Mykonos....a few more pictures

A few more pics of some of our favorite places that we have seen. We are so lucky that we get to see these places more than once.

Taormina, Sicily

One of the streets in Taromina



Hanging out in the Northern Lights on the ship




Sailing out of Venice we always get great pictures.

Clubbing in Istanbul!

The fun shopping area in Istanbul. We went and saw The Dark Knight at a theatre on this street and an hour and half into the movie they took an intermission. It was really funny and kind of annoying.

The Pretzel guy!

The Turkish Bath we went to in Istanbul....we wore swim suits but most people go in the nude and you literally get washed! It was crazy but just had to try it! You go in this huge room made entirely of marble. It's really hot inside and you just lay on the marble in the center of the room until your giant Turkish "washer" wearing only underwear comes up and scrubs you down. We got a little soap massage and they exfoliate your entire body and it really hurts. What an experience!

The Blue Mosque
