Wonderful photos of John's visit with you, Mehmet. He really looks to be enjoying himself a-lot. Great present
he brought to you too. Are you in charge of the Istanbul Tourist agency? You should be! You have done
a-lot to promote your lovely city. It was recently featured on an American TV show called "Missing" about
an American woman CIA agent whose teenage son is kidnapped but then rescued in your city. It was
party filmed on the beautiful Bosphorus where they filmed a boat chase. Best wishes, PeterThumpUp Smile
