From Istanbul to Izmir



Sunday was our official kickoff day.  We started with a team briefing at the hotel in Istanbul and then all flew together to Izmir. 

Zoran might kill me for posting this but I have to tell you what a feat it is for Zoran to be on the team with us and how glad we are to have him.  Without Zoran we might have lost Viv forever! (see Viv’s blog for the full story… it’s a good one.  I'll update this page with the direct link when she posts it.)  Anyway, Zoran is deathly afraid of flying so it was a huge commitment for him to fly all the way from Australia to Istanbul and then get on another plane a few days later to fly to Izmir.  Thank you Zoran for taking the big leap to be here.
 




In Izmir, we checked into our hotel.  I think we’re spoiled!  While not as luxurious as Taxim Hill in Istanbul, this hotel is pretty great compared with what other CSC teams have had.  For those left at home - never fear, we are well taken care of!




And finally dinner.  Our hotel is only a block from the water so we had a beautiful walk along the water and dinner at an outdoor seafood restaurant.
