So nice to be home, but I must say I really enjoyed Istanbul!  What a wonderful surprise.  A nice blend of East meets West.  Even though my blog is about NYC, I must give you a feel for the people and the cosmopolitan city that it is! So my next few posts will be dedicated to Istanbul, Turkey.  I would return in a heart beat!  Now… something seemed to have happened here in the city while I was gone.  When I left it was summer dresses and flip flops and now it’s boots, jackets and scarves!  Wow, what a difference a week makes!
