I went to the Istanbul train station that was the site of the Orient Express. .I had to have tea in the restaurant because it was so very elegant. .Naturally, in Istanbul it was apple tea. .Just next to the bar was a hall where my real destination was located. .I came to see a demonstration of whirling dervishes. . I should have gone without a camera. .That way I'd have just enjoyed the moment. .It was so graceful. I had expected something like the Tasmanian Devil, but it wasn't that at all. .It was simply elegant, gentle spinning and over way too soon.
