Thursday in Suli


We went to Chia Azmar in the early morning on the second day in Suli... This is a view from near the top.

Another view...

After the mountaintop, we went to the bazaar to shop... we bought dictionaries (English-Kurdish) and browsed all the wares from Turkey. This was the view of a live turkey market from a bridge above.

After this, we went to the Palace Hotel for coffee and walked slowly back to our own hotel stopping at the Antique bazaar on the way back to our hotel. There we met Ha who informed us that an associate of Mu wanted to take us for dinner at Revan (probably the best -and most expensive- Turkish restaurant in Kurdistan). It was nice (as usual). But by the end, we were too full to even stand up, let alone do anything else (and I had been hoping to meet up with D for drinks.

Anyway, I managed to meet D and H for coffee the following morning (Friday) before heading back to Hawler.

And this is a fuzzy view of the mountains as we were exiting Sulemaniyah on Friday morning.
