Belly Dancing

This week has been pretty uneventful for the most part. I mostly have just been doing school, homework, and the average daily living stuff. There have been a couple highlights though.

On Tuesday a large group of locals and GLS students went to the local Syrian restaurant, where we enjoyed food, watched a belly dancer, and some participated in smoking hookah. I personally don't enjoy the idea of smoking hookah, but it adds to the environment where or not you participate none the less.

On Wednesday Carolyn and I attempted to make cookies in our futuristic looking oven. Unfortunately, it was a fail and didn't work. It seems to cook the top to fast and forget to cook the middle. Good thing we like cookie dough.

Lots of people left for Egypt yesterday, so it is just me holding down the fort right now. Meleana and I went to dinner tonight and are going to take a day trip tomorrow back to the Turkish side to explore a little more.

I have been debating a London trip to see my Grandma's family. But nothing has been set in stone yet. I don't really have a travel buddy so I'm being a little reluctant to book. I am hoping to visit Coral (Colin's Sister) in whales for a day if I go as well as visit Grandma's family in Nottingham if possible. I'll update on this later on whether or not I'm actually going to go.
