Turkish Hamam

Okay- I finally did it. I went to a Turkish Hamam. Sarah and I almost went to a similar place in Korea, but backed out. :) Turkey is known for its "Turkish Baths." It is a huge cultural thing. I've always hesitated, because you usually go in the buff. :) So, needless to say, it wasn't on the top of my list. But Linda, my best buddy, and I decided we'd take on the experience together. It took us until the last week of being in Turkey together to decide to actually do it. -- It was interesting to say the least. Some unexpected occurrences happened in the beginning, but there was no turning back! It will always be edged in my memory. I am so glad that Linda, Julianna and I experienced it together. I couldn't have done it with anyone else.
-- Oh, we did all wear bikini's. :)I only have before pictures, for obvious reasons. We even rode an doolmosh to and fro. It was a true, completely non-tourist, Turkish experience.
