We continue on the story as the weather starts to cool and we add a few adventures to the list.
Babanne with an enthusiastic looking Leyla.
She's always happier when out exploring.
Hair clip just about staying on.
Going to Sevil Hala's house for a meet and greet with cousin Ellis.
Group shot.
La was missing playing with kids as everyone was in school during our stay. Problem solved - we sent her to school!
The kindy equivalent - La loved it, learned lots and made some new friends.
Of course, being on holiday meant also having some fun so Serpil Hala sent La along with Sami to the indoor snow centre.
La's first glimpse of snow.
Father Christmas.
Reaching the top of Mt Everest.
Having lunch afterwards.
The snow place was beside the Aquarium hence the fishy statues.
Though I am not sure what mushrooms have to do with it....
...but they look great nonetheless!
Sami and his mum.
Altogether.
A very compliant Leyla.
Left Leyla with her grandparents for the evening and had some dinner at a hotel restaurant which meant naturally, we had the run of the place.
Went exploring around their outdoor areas beside the sea.
And indoor areas too.
Took the elevator to the very top to admire the view.
Not an inch of the place was left not looked at. You'd think we actually paid to stay there.
Stopping over back in Istanbul for a few hours before continuing on home, so Serpil Hala and Turgut brought lunch to the airport and we feasted before we boarded.
Enjoying one last meal together - but not for long, Sami doesn't stay away for long.
He's keen to try again for a beard. Not too scary. Didn't get hassled at the airport at least.
Home again, and this is poor La afterwards while we were waiting for our bags. Falling asleep on the spot. Thanks for having us everyone - til next time! x
