Istanbul, Turkey August 5, 2023

 Hello all. This report is later than I had intended because my computer retired the day after I arrived. It has taken several days to find a repair shop.

All three Air Canada flights were late, with the one from Montreal to Geneva being over an hour late to depart. The crew announced a freight problem, however, when a group of seven arrived on board, we immediately departed.

 I arrived last Sunday evening and have had a good time with my friends here. Hussian's mother and I bought him an I Pad for his birthday, and I delivered it from Canada.  

This is high tourist season here, with the popular sights being extremely busy. I do not leave my hotel until after the morning rush at ten. I use the subway (M2)  to get to the mall where we meet. and in doing so, I must change subway lines at the fourth stop. I then get off at the fourth stop on that line,known as the M7. The malls here all have attractions to draw customers....rides for kids, etc.

Take care, and I will check in towards the next weekend, more then. Take care.
