Travel Snaps Tuesday – Blue Mosque

I am sitting at  my desk sipping my decaf vanilla Early Grey tea with my blanket on my lap and watching the leaves blow by outside my window.  It is a blustery day and I am perfectly content to be sitting here working away and feeling nothing but cozy. As much as Summer is by far my favourite time of year, days like this make me feel good … and fortunate to have a warm home to be inside.

What better day than to edit some travel pics and reminisce about our amazing time in Turkey.  I think I probably only have a couple blog posts worth of images from this trip left to share, and then it will be on to my next travel adventure.

So today I am sharing with you images from the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, Turkey.  As you can tell I had a thing for the ceiling detail.  Hope you enjoy!

Oh sigh. I loved the blue mosque. So peaceful, elegant and beautiful. God I miss Turkish culture, food and scenery. 🙂 I love these blog posts. xoxo

Beautifully shot Kim. I bet the detail of some of these is amazing when you see them on a larger screen and the colours! I just love them.
