Istanbul, Day Four (August 11th)

Day Four: The Sema Experience Starts.

Sema Yildiz emailed me her number. At some point we spoke on the phone (and I was reminded of how rough but enthusiastic her English is) and agreed to meet at Kabatas tramway station at 6pm for a lesson at her place on the 11^th.

I woke up nice and early (7:30?) on the 11^th. . For four days I’d been waking up at 7:30 to beat the crowds. I ate my breakfast and went to the Istanbul Archaeology Museum on the Topkapi grounds. It was amazing. I took many pictures and was often reminded of how much of my art history classes I have forgotten. “I know these images…sorta.”

Day 4 pictures start after the picture of Me, Reyhan, and Dilek.
