Too hot to study
Oh my gosh... 45 °C at 9:30 am. Not that easy to study ;) At home we just have 15 °C and it is raining. Don´t know which weather is more preferable?!

SALT Museum and Art Gallery
Today we visited the SALT Museum. We met at the library and after a short introduction our guide showed us the nice building and the exhibitions. The building contains a library, and exhibitions about architecture, design, and social and economic histories. First we saw models of all water reservoirs of Turkey and the exhibition of the history of the building. In the last part of the visit we got to know the marketing manager. The women showed us a presentation and told us something about the marketing concept, how SALT identifies in the public and how they finance. Interesting and nice trip!
Pera Museum
Yesterday we visited the Pera Museum. The director of the museum showed us the differnet exhibitions. We saw the "anatolian weights and measures", the "Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics" and the "Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters". After the viewing he answered all questions of our group. It was also nice that the museum has air-conditioned rooms because it was very hot outside yesterday :-) -> 40° and more!
It was a very interesting nice visit!

Ice cream gag on Istiklal Caddesi
Walking down Istiklal Caddesi you see the traditional ice cream sellers playing tricks on unsuspecting tourists- it is so much fun- but watch yourself!

Walking the streets of Taksim
Dinner
We were so hungry and went through the Istiklal Cd. searching a place to eat. Happily we found the Ara Cafe near the Galatasaray Lisesi. We had very nice dinner as it is seen on the picture. Afterwards we went to the French Street. There was an absolutely nice atmosphere in that small street. Because of the time we only went through, but decide to come back and visit it a next time.
