So Craig and I show up at the bank at 7 to hang out with the banker (Celal) and his friend (Evren), who just happens to be a stock broker with the same bank and speaks great English. We headed to a nice area of downtown where we met up with another one of Celal's friends. She didn't speak any English, but felt like she had seen Craig before. They ordered for us and it was the best meal we've had since we've been here. We talked about sports, some politics, Turkish history and inner peace. Towards the end of the dinner, the lady realized why Craig looked so familiar. She had a dream last night were she meet two foreigners, one of whom looked just like Craig. Interesting! I believe a good time was had by all and we made plans to meet up again, hopefully for basketball next Saturday. Meanwhile back at the house, the ladies were cooking up a storm. They made chicken tetrazzini, salad, and a wonderful strawberry shortcake, which they shared with the guys upon their return. Enjoy the pic of the 3 cooks in their uniforms.
