Kebabs and kittens

Ocracoke has feral cats; Istanbul has more. They're kind of like the monkeys in SE Asia, clamoring over rooftops and scampering along the streets. Cats, of course, are elegant rather than impish. I haven't yet learned what Turkish cats say, but they don't respond to "kitty kitty kitty.".

We found a lovely guesthouse in the heart of the tourist district, between the Blue Mosque and the Bosphorus. I appreciate the balmy nights and great hospitality and eating olives for breakfast.

If anyone has news from Ocracoke, please share!

So, you DID go to Istanbul! I've not made it over there yet, though, some of my compadres have. We have a contract development house called NETAS over there. Enjoy!

About Me

My Photo
Name: Blue Heron Vacations
Location: Ocracoke, NC, United States

I grew up on Ocracoke (Class of 1990!) and graduated from Davidson College. Jennifer, who many of you know as the owner of Blue Heron Realty, has been a great and true friend for as long as I can remember. I work as a waitress at the Cafe Atlantic, serve on the board of our community radio station (check out WOVV.org) and write an occasional column for the Island Breeze. Every time I travel I fall in love with a new place, but nothing yet trumps living near my (at times eccentric) family, swimming in the Atlantic on our world class beach, and being part of the strong, warm and inspiring community which is Ocracoke.
