The Deniz family escaped for a long weekend to Erdek, a seaside town about two hours away from Bursa. It was quiet, not crowded, and warm. Topi got his first taste of the sea (his first dip into water was Lake Michigan), and was able to run around freely because there was very limited car traffic. We came back very relaxed, and just in time for Devrim to go to Koln, Germany for three weeks starting next Tuesday. Let's hope Topi's little sister doesn't want to show up early! The little girl with Topi is Lal, the daughter of our friends Koksal and Semra, and after some encouragement, they became friends. :)
