... off on his trip to the UK.
We took the opportunity to go on to the large shopping centre in Izmir

Pronounced Efes, like the beer!
... we were immediately drawn in by their beauty and craftsmanship. We narrowed down the styles to a dozen or so, and before we knew it, we had purchased a carpet. It was funny how it happened; it was an outlier in the designs which really "spoke to us", but the size is right, it is about 40 years old (we like that it was used) and it just felt right.
