Greetings form the city that spans continents.. Once again I’m up too late trying to do a full day of work here and a full day of work at home.\u00a0 Last night I ended up working late at ibm then taking the subway back to the hotel . I ended up going to a grocery store and buying stuff to eat in my room so I could work.. it was delicious !<\/p>\n

It was a very good day today ..I was so happy to wake up to the news of the election. I know that you’re not supposed to discuss religion or politics publicly.. but I’m very happy with the result.<\/p>\n

It was also a very good work day. I gave a\u00a0 talk and had interviews and talked to clients…. I got to meet some absolutely awesome folks. The Turkish people are so warm and friendly and fun.. and this city is really beautiful .\u00a0 The meeting today was in a cool rebuilt palace of one of the sultans.. It was right on the Bosporus and looked out over the river with a view of the Asian continent right across the water.\u00a0\u00a0 The castle burned down in the early 20th century.. but was rebuild in th 80’s.. only the ornate marble Turkish baths survived (pictures in here somewhere) .<\/p>\n

After the meeting we went to\u00a0 a great fish restaurant on the river with a gorgeous view of the bridge..<\/p>\n

As beautiful as this place\u00a0 is.. the Turkish internet providers are blocking the photobucket site I use to post pictures.. I’m going to try and post them from my phone.. but if that doesn’t work.. I’ll have to upload them tomorrow..<\/p>\n

for now.. time for sleep..<\/p>\n

nite all, nite sam<\/p>\n
