catch up from the past week

Here is a ridiculously looooong post to catch everybody up on all the fun that Ella and Gma Klein have been having together that hasn't made it into the other posts.

A few days ago we went out to a big collective farm/park that we have posted about before.
Ella liked it so much that she thought about a career in agriculture...
But after all the hard work she knows that it is good to stop to smell the flowers...
She wanted to strike a pose like ole Vlad (Lenin)...
Then her mom got into the act...
On Sunday we visited another park, where Ella got to ride the little ferris wheel...
And this puke machine (she really did like it, although she looks overwhelmed)...
and the big ferris wheel...
wow thats tall...
Needed ice cream after all the fun...
Then as we were leaving the park, we found a guy along the river selling boat rides...
Ella was not a big fan of the wind...
A few days previous the ladies went to the same park, and rode the donkey...
and the frog...
and a deer...
and of course ate ice cream...
Then for a visit to the water fountain...
Comrades Earlene and Ella posing here like good commies...
Another day Jen and Earlene went visiting to Jen's language helper's...
One afternoon Ella helped Gma make cookies with the brown sugar and choc chips that she brought with her...
Earlene really liked the livestock transportation...

Great pictures, great times! Don't know what we would do without this blog--almost makes me feel like I am there, feeling the 105 degree heat. Have a great time in Turkey
