DTW --> YYZ--> IST

So.  There's another adventure afoot and this time it's Amy going it alone.  I won't continue to use the third person, but at least you know who's posting this time.

I'm taking my first real vacation days of the year. I decided a couple of weeks ago it was time to visit Emily and tickets were purchased, laundry was done, my desk at the museum cleared and I'm off!  Thanks to Betsy and Hannah for the ride to the airport!

Things I hope to accomplish on this trip:
1. See Emily and soak up as much of her as I can to last for the foreseeable future
2. Experience Turkey and all the great things I've heard about
3. Relax and unwind

That's it. I don't have a huge agenda.

Things I hope to avoid on this trip:
1. Letting my inner rock star out in Emily's apartment, like happens on so many other trips away from home, usually in hotels
2. Turkey tummy - I have stockpiled medication to avert this if possible

I'll try to update the status of these lists as the trip unfolds.
