I love how they always have something plain available for those who eat plain food. I know my parents would have chosen from that section  ;D  A trip wouldn't be a trip without a chef giving you a recipe Chookie and your approach to Istanbul all lit up sounded wonderful.

Chookie the lights of the city at night must have been like magic.

Morning all.  Have had 1/2 the ship helping me get on to the Forum.  !!!. Yesterday visited Russia.  Sochi.  We are sailing off the coast of  the Ukraine, Yalta.  Now.  i have got up early to try and get on to wifi.  Last night we had a Russian menu.  Always good. Yesterday for lunch we ate out on the deck,  2 whole roast piglets.  We can sit with most people as they are good company.  They are from  very mixed backgrounds and always interesting to talk to.  Better go,  glad I could get on.

Have been without wifi for a few days but back on now.  We have just arrived back to Istanbul.  Beautiful view from room.  Will post later. Very good transfer from boat.  Last night we had a farewell dinner.  All dressed up,  but the highlight of the day was the BBQ lunch,  out on deck. Will try and attach photo.

Thanks for the pictures Chookie - they certainly put a lot of effort into their food displays on cruises.
