I really liked the bazaar in Bursa. I think Don and Wendy did too.
Much of it surrounded a leafy courtyard where shoppers could enjoy tea.
This was a cool day -- a little cloudy. And it was late in the afternoon, so most of the tea-sippers had already left.
But the shoppers were out in full force.
I held my camera up to my chest and snapped this way while looking that way so folks wouldn't get upset that I was taking their pictures. I hoped.
Must have worked. Nobody got upset, though I did get a few funny looks.
There was even more to see than in Philadelphia's Little Italy.
MMMMMmmmmmmm.
I think King Midas must have passed by.
Lotsa shops.
Now there are some tea sippers. The kid in red was carrying a round tray suspended from his hand by wires, and in the center of the tray was a clear glass cup of tea. (Turks don't like ceramic cups.) The kid would swing the tray as though he hadn't a care in the world about spilling anything, and in fact, he didn't spill anything. Guess he knows his physics.
A place to escape from the hubbub of the market.
