"Ottoman Odyssey

A Turkish welcome mat
One highlight of this trip has been visiting with sponsor families along the way. These are people who, through their affiliation with the Gulen movement, have contributed money to pay for our multiple flights and bus rides, our meals, our hotel stays and our savory spreads of Turkish food. Now they've welcomed us into their homes, as well, and they serve us with a hospitality that surpasses anything I've seen.
Since there are 10 of us, we divide into two groups and go our separate ways. I'm with Veysel, Norman Kutschenreuter, Judy Lackritz and Bill Long."
