Bir Mayıs

Bir Mayıs means May 1st, and May 1st is Labor Day.  So, Justin and the kids had the day off. 

The weather has been a bit hot, but today it was BEAUTIFUL!  In stead of joining the protests around town, we decided to go to this place to walk and play.  It is one of my favorite spots in the city.   The forest is just the right size and it overlooks the Straight.  The views are fantastic- both nature and sea.  There is a nice paved path that circles the forest.  We walked it twice today.  It felt nice to get out and move a bit- city living can lend itself to being inside too much!  We splurged on ice cream cones for the kids and then they played on the playground for a bit.  It was a perfect family day!









Exactly a year ago Max and Isaiah came to visit.  Their visit was one of the highlights of 2012!  It's hard to believe that it was a year ago.  We're ready for them to come again!!
