last days in Aleppo

It's almost two weeks since we got home (Home Sweet Home!!!), but there's unfinished business here. The next series of posts will hopefully give a good idea of the last few days for our odyssey.

The last days in Aleppo were spent buying gifts in the souk, getting packed, and... going back to the Citadel. It became out favourite haven in the city, where we could sit and drink strong Turkish coffee and the kids were free to roam and explore.

The citadel's fortifications were the favourite playground of the local kids too...


Barney totally gets it.

The trusty hire car that took us all around the country, with Nonno the intrepid chauffeur and tour guide.
