| The Otel 57 was the base of operations for the
Black Sea Expedition. Two tools that I used a lot were a digital
camera and a laptop |

The following three shots are views out
of my window of alley below.

View from window of an old Ottoman period
house. These wooden structures date back to the late 19th.
Century. This particular house may someday become the Black
Sea Expedition headquarters.

Front side of the hotel faces a busy street
that serves the harbor area.
|
|
|
|
Harbor can be seen through the buildings.
|

|
|
The street on which Otel 57 is located
is setback from the Sinop harbor.

Grocery store across the street from the
hotel. There are a lot of privately owned grocery stores
in Turkey. I seemed that most of the stores carried the
same merchandise there wasn't any diversity the items they
sell most

Main Lobby of Otel 57 with Turkish music
videos playing. The stairs lead to the upper lobby

The Otel 57 lobby upper was the "unofficial"
meeting hall for the Black Sea Expedition
