also had another Youtuber from Australia said its pretty bad where she is she keeps up to date with everything.

Here in the UK still get the odd ambulance and panic as well. I was super emotional yesterday but I’m okay now were still ? for a miracle and remaining thankful for loved ones but mourn for the ones who lost their lives during this pandemic. But sharing my love and support to everyone hope you are both keeping healthy and safe where you are. Xoxo

Markets are exciting destinations in vacation plans.My husband loved them and he enjoyed shopping. Thanks for this Steve.

Indeed but they don’t have any Health standard issues, the food is bought to the market and sold daily. These are not the markets in the news, nor are 99.9% of wet markets. Thanks :

Michelle, you deserve credit too, because without your help it wouldn’t have been possible! The movie, ‘ A Passage to India’ was taken in Ooty. ‘St. Thomas’ Church’ was featured in that movie. You ought to watch that movie, while you are in lockdown in Turkey. It was taken in a time, when Ooty was still unspoiled. Your visit to St. Stephen’s Church, was full of memories for me, as that’s my home church, where I was christened, and baptised. I wish there was someone there to have shown you around the church, as you missed out on ‘a lot.’ There’s a beautiful British Cemetery behind the church, which definitely begs a visit. You could have easily spent an hour there without realising it. My mom stays a few hundred metres away from the church, and had I known you and Michelle before this, I could have got you a stay at her place, with beautiful home cooked food! So much for next time! You must plan a trip again, we’ll help to make it worth your while! God bless, and do keep the lovely videos coming. Don’t hesitate on putting them up, because you’re actually adding value to things most of us take for granted. Have a lovely stay in Istanbul, we’ll catch up again on Sunday! Steve, that mouldy seed you were looking at is, ‘Cotton seed’, and the local farmers use it to feed their cows. The things you thought were Pasta, actually weren’t. They are like a savory, which needs to be deep fried, and used as an accompaniment, with a meal of rice and curry! The local term used for them is ‘Papadam.’

@Steve Owens Thank you Steve and Michele, for the speedy reply. I’m restoring an old motorcycle I own, and am doing my best to stay happy and positive during this lockdown. Lots of love from India. God bless! Comments from you always make my day!

Hi Chris, that is the most wonderful comment I have read in a while, I really wish I could go back and re live that day with you words in my ear. It would have been a pleasure to meet you family and I now wish I had bumped into someone at the St. Stephen’s.
I actually will see if we can watch that Movie by the way and oh how I chuckled when I read about the pasta.. of course, I should have known.. How funny.
Take good care of yourself.
Best wishes from Turkey.
Steve and Michele

I can’t imagine so much food! Do they sell it all before it goes bad? The people seem very friendly! What an experience!

A wet market run.’ There’s your title, Steve. FYI – They used to make chewing gum from the sap of that pear flavoured fruit you were eating. I believe it’s called a chiku. I know it as a sawo. I like them when they’re ripe. Loved the walk around. Thank you.

Hi Steve, thanks for making a video of my hometown. The plants and trees you where were talking about was brought by British to the Nilgiris’s. Hope u visited tribal villages too.

Steve, ‘Art’, is something to consider, while this lockdown lasts.

Thank you for taking the time to educate us. We’ve been told the wet market in China sold wild game. Apparently some thought all wet market sold wild game or that is all they sold. I’ve enjoyed shopping the wet markets in Japan. So much more enjoyable than Walmart in the US. They are more like the farmer’s markets in the US where you buy more locally produced food from the family that produced it. Keep educating us.
