okay, since i havent written a thing, im going to break it up a little, especially because typing on a turkish keyboard is taking some getting used to.
ill start with a very short description of my day in london, where i managed to leave the airport and see the city for a little. i hopped on the rail/subway/whatever the heck its called in london, and made it to the british museum. as an anthropologist, i figured the one thing i wanted to see was the rosetta stone- so i did. additionally, there is an incredible collection of ancient near east reliefs, many of which i studied in my class on the art and archaeology of ancient syria. essentially, i walked around saying ´wow!´for about an hour. mostly, this story is told through pictures which i will hopefully post on facebook, and also have many to see upon my return.
thats pretty much all there was to my day in london. more on my first few days in the incredible city of instanbul soon!
