Last week Kelli came out to cruise with us. Thanks to the friends on board program with Holland America we were able to get her on for free! We had the most amazing time showing her some of our favorite places.
Kelli flew into Athens. We stored her luggage at the train station and went straight to the Acropolis.
The next day was Istanbul.
This is a Cistern that was built underground and sits right next to the blue mosque. There are fish swimming in the water...it was really strange but so cool!

Doug and I decided to wait until Kelli came to see Ephesus in Kusadasi, Turkey. It made it really special because none of us had been there. It's an amazing city that was built in 600 BC and completely covered with gravel until it was restored. Now you can walk right through the city and it was so cool!
This is the cute lady that sold us all of our jewelry. She was really sweet so we had to get a pic with her.
We are so happy Kelli was able to come out and experience ship life with us. We had so much fun and wish that everyone we know and love could have done it too. (Yes, you were all invited!)
