While visiting the city we were blessed with nice warm weather, which allowed us to do lots of outdoors activities including visiting the city’s war memorials, famous parks, zoo, and, one of our favorite activities, the local water park!

Tips and Tricks for Hanging a Turkish Lamp at Home
If you’ve ever visited Istanbul, you’ll no doubt have seen hundreds upon hundreds of the gorgeous and ornate Turkish lamps that are found throughout the city. Our first thought was that these lamps were pretty awesome, and without hesitating we began a quest to to buy one for our (at the time) future home.
This was all well and good, but there was one problem: we had no idea how to make it work when we got home.
Luckily for us, modifying the lamp turned out to be incredibly easy, and you don’t have to be an engineer with an electrician for a father to figure it all out (that being said, I’ll give you one guess which category we fell into).
But if you have reservations about making your Turkish lamp working at home, this step-by-step guide is all you need to take your boxed up lamp and turn it into the star attraction of a room!

It took several years, but when I finally made it to the Yucatan I found a plethora of activities that were so far removed from the party and resort crowd that I was upset that I didn’t consider visiting earlier.
If you do it right, you can avoid all of the stereotypes that come with the Yucatan and have an incredible experience. During our travels around the Yucatan, we found seven stellar attractions you may be interested in checking out if you are looking to get away from the resort mindset.
