I guess that's why they call it "The Blue"

Morning: chaperoning a boat trip on the Bosphorus, the last adventure for our first year "prep" students before they go on holiday where they will transform, by September, in to young adults ready for their Lise 9 studies. 

Afternoon: the music and art teachers all had late lunch at the Harvard Cafe in Etiler, sitting outside in the leafy shade of their lovely patio garden.

Evening: never quite made it home and got waylaid by friends and beer at Bizim Tepe until about 8pm.

Took several pics, but this one of the Bosphorus in all her 'blueness' is my favourite, tho' not necessarily the best photo.
