4th of July!

Happy belated 4th of July!

M and I looked online for a group of Americans to celebrate with and found some people were hosting "Amerika Camp" and there would be games and costumes.  We went, all excited to meet some people, and it was...not like we'd imagined.  Even though people there were our age, they somehow made us feel 100.  Then another scientist, and his scientist wife, and her German parents, showed up and we hung out with them.  They were super nice and we had an awesome time.  They had also come for the games, which never happened, but we ate a lot of meat and were introduced to the Zuckermelone (Santa Claus melon), which is one of the best 3 melons I've ever tasted.  I bought one the next day at the Turkish market.



On our way home, we found that some things don't need translating:


I hope that you all had a great 4th as well, and if you have any pictures of fireworks, send them my way. It was very sad not to see any.
