Journey Aboard Interlude

We're on our way to Istanbul in the morning and I probably won't be updating the blog very often while we're there. Before leaving, I wanted to share the photo above, taken yesterday morning at the anchorage where we spent the night. It's pretty clear why this place is called "The Aquarium". And in case anyone is wondering, these fish LOVE to eat goat cheese. I created a feeding frenzy when I tossed some of it in the water before taking this photo. Thank god there were no piranhas in the vicinity.....

Extra:	Hope the way is long. May there be many summer mornings when, with what pleasure, with what joy, you shall enter first-seen harbors... Keep Ithaca always in your mind. Arriving there is what has been ordained for you. But do not hurry the journey at all. Better if it lasts many [...] years; and you dock an old man on the island, rich with all that you've gained on the way, not expecting Ithaca to give you wealth. Ithaca gave you the beautiful journey. Without her you would not have set out. She has nothing more to give you. Excerpts from "Ithaca" by Constantine Cavafy More
