My last day in Turkey. I am back in Istanbul my plane leaves early in the morning tomorrow. I decided to let myself get a couple of trinkets at a bazaar! It was really cool to walk around in a crowded narrow allied old shopping area with everybody shouting really loud in Turkish and me not understanding a word. I ended up getting a little box painted all over with cool designs and a carved wooden stature of a dog that could fit in my pocket. I named him Spot. I also checked out all the beads and the jewelry but I didn't get any of them.I loved my little day in the Bazaar but the highlight of the day was when I got to see the President Abdullah Gul. I was just about to cross the street when there were police cars coming down the road and the president's limo came past. There were a lot of people waving and I was waving and shouting too. He stopped and was talking to the people, and he looked at me and said Hi! I was so proud. I felt like this trip was the best in the world. I had a really good day.
