-<h3>Blaise travels Madison to Istanbul</h3>
-
-<p>
-Blaise left Madison mid-afternoon Wisconsin time, traveling to Istanbul to meet Nancy and Jim.
-This involved a short flight Madison → Chicago, an ~11 hour flight Chicago → Istanbul, and a hour long bus ride to get downtown.
-The most remarkable experience was the Turkish Airlines flight, which involved an unprecedented level of hospitality.
-Every passenger was given two excellent meals, blanket, pillow, eye masks, slippers, headphones, and seemingly countless other little amenities.
-It's easy to see how Turkish Airlines got its reputation.
