Didn't do a whole heckuva lot today

Just cruised the Bosphorus Straight, the nautical divider between Europe and Asia, soaking in some sun, remarkable world history, and posh Ottoman water-side neighborhoods. One of the three gave my forearms a royal singe. We then sauntered to old town to the Grand Bazaar, bartering with the human equivalent of motion-detecting garage door lights. Except instead of light, they emit a horrificly-broken record: "hello yes please! hello yes please! you like jeans? yes please! you like new jeans? yes please! hello, yes please! new jeans? yes please! hello, sir? sir? hello, please. yes, please! you like new leather jacket? yes please! hello yes please! more inside please, yes please! hello, please! yes, YES PLEASE HELLO!"

Goddam. Raki, please!
