High expectations

As we had the floor retiled this wek end we took the opportunity to take some time out and give our vacation a happy ending and go to Grythyttan for some fine dining.
The food was good but not as good as I had expected but we had a very nice time.

Today I worked for the first time in 3 weeks and I realized what a huge waste of time working actually is. I could have done so many things today: like lying in the sun but instead I was looked up in the office. At least I wore  my new Mahnolo's :)

Take care

Istanbul 2008

Back from 2 weeks vacation in Istanbul. It was very nice, well worth a visit. Great shopping, good food and a lot of stuff going on day and night. I believe that there are cars and people moving around the city 24 hrs a day at a insane pace.
We stayed at an apartment in the tranny district. The Girl-Boys were very nice though and quit fun to talk to for a while.

I did some serious shopping, I fear my credit card bill... In Istanbul they have a Harvey Nichols-store that was fierce. We also found a 80.000 square meters shopping center Istinye Park where I bought a pair of Jimmy Choo's, I also bought 2 pairs of Mahnolo's (in my defense I can say that they were 50% off) and one pair of Salvatore Ferragamo.

And a few bags, a 3-peice good for work type of suit.

All in all we had a great time: got lost in the country in the middle of the night, had a horrible dinner experience at The Supperclub (possibly the worst food I have ever tasted, we left before dessert), wonderful dinner experience a 360.

The only downside is sis and her temper. She is extremely dependent on others, can't be alone for one minute and does almost anything to get her way. I will speak to her about this soon but I have to find the right moment. At somepoint she managed to annoy everyone. Too bad since I really think this vacation with friends concept is a great one and wish we can do it again next year.
As soon as I can I will upload some pics from Istanbul.

Take care
Love/E
