Theatre Entrance694 viewsThe tunnel shown in the previous picsture leads to this portal.

Beware of Strinking694 viewsWe didn't know what "border" we might be crossing, let alone what "strinking" meant, so it was hard to avoid doing that; nevertheless, we escaped without any dire consequences, although as far as I know we never made it to Geziyolu, whatever and wherever that was.

The Blue Mosque694 viewsThe Blue Mosque was built on the site of the Grand Palace of the Byzantine Emperors. Sultan Ahmed, who caused it to be built, felt it necessary to reassert the might and grandeur of the Ottoman Empire in a time of serious military reverses during the early 17th century.

Plate Close-up694 viewsOf the three plates on this shelf, my favorite combined a floral design with what appears to be a mishmash of Arabic script and Greek letters.

What would you call this piece?694 viewsThere was nothing to indicate what the vessel suspended from the elephant tusk was intended to contain. Very imaginative, and very much unacceptable if it were made today, but in the nineteenth century nobody worried about elephants becoming extinct.

Pool693 viewsThe waterfall emptied into a beautiful blue-green pool with lush vegetation growing all round - an idyllic scene.

Clouding Up693 viewsTowards sunset, the clouds, which had mercifully given us a clear sky for the entire eclipse, began to move in on our observation site.

Halfway There693 viewsRick Gering and Jim Windlinger keep tabs on the progress of the eclipse by monitoring their equipment, while Mike Treder and Pat Bush check out the projections on the sheet.

Touring the Blue Mosque693 viewsThe Blue Mosque is both a working mosque and one of the main tourist attractions of Istanbul. Here our tour group gathers for instruction by Attila in its history and architecture, as well as the rules of etiquette for visitors.

But where's my handle?693 viewsThe spout is attached; the next step will be to apply the handle.

The Stone of Million693 viewsAt left, all that remains of a domed building from the 4th century AD which marked the starting point for measuring distances to all parts of the Byzantine Empire.

Medhal (Reception Room)693 viewsThe main entrance hall, where a visit to the Dolmabahçe Palace begins. Guests would wait here to be escorted to their appointed destination by a palace protocol officer.
