FOB Konya, Turkey

I have never been to Turkey before, as I can say for most of the countries I've visited so far with NATO! We had gorgeous facilities and even a movie room where I got to see Kill Bill for the first time, with James and Letitia. We snacked on Pistachios, a well known product from Turkey apparently. We were only in Turkey three days, but we got one day off to enjoy the sights.

James stares lovingly at Letitia before they move tables to be together by the window...awwwww. This cafe was really nice and overlooked a park so we sat and enjoyed some chai tea, not the huge chai you get at Starbucks, but real chai served in a tiny glass.

Meike is the one who found the cafe. We actually were looking for another cafe,but this one turned out just fine. We all got a little ice cream aftward and just wandered around looking at shops. He also took us to a shop where they make things with pressed wool. Gorgeous! I will definitely go there again the next time I'm in Turkey!
