Birthday

My birthday was on Monday. We went to dinner with our friends Ben and Silvi and their friend Aaron (also a b-ball player from the states here in Mersin.) We had planned on eating Chinese at the Hilton, but it is closed on Monday so we ate at the regular restaurant in the Hilton. We had a wonderful dinner and Ben and Silvi brought me a birthday cake.

On Tuesday I received flowers from my dad and Jane. I'm quite impressed as Virgil has learned to shop on-line. In the evening we met Serhat who so thoughtfully brought me the doughnuts I was craving. Here is a picture of me holding myself from eating them all at once!! Thankfully the doughnut dreams have now died down! Fecir is coming in 2 weeks and is bringing my cereal, so those dreams have also subsided. Thank god for good friends and family!!



Kaan's mom's b-day was on Sunday, the day before mine. We ate fish at Kaan's parents for dinner and his aunt, unlce, and cousin joined us.
