Etiler, Istanbul

Walked to Akmerkez shopping mall in Etiler at 17.30 to do some shopping before meeting Alison - friend and ex colleague (also retired) - to catch up on the past year, swap news and medical histories since last we met :) while we had dinner at Midpoint restaurant, and then I walked back again to my temporary home on college campus. A very hot and sticky 7,400 steps. This was after an almost comatose day of dull lethargy, so it was good to close the day with some action and it's always good to meet old friends.
