Liberty call L-A. SPEZI-A. Early December found us in a nest alongside the YELLOWSTONE in La Spezia, Italy. The days were spent mostly chasing down ship-to-shop items, standing in line at the YELLOWSTONE small stores, and trying to get jobs done before sailing. In the evenings, after a long boat-ride, Tigerites discovered a pleasant resort town, pretty much closed down for the winter. The wanderers took off for Florence, Pisa, and Venice, while the rest had Perroni and Pizza, or ate hot chestnuts and looked in store win- dows. A few hardy souls purchased marble ash- trays, lamps, and even table-tops, and then sweated the choppy ride back to the nest.

Northward from Crete, we sailed the Aegean, the Dardanelles, the Sea of Marmara, and finally, just past the Golden Horn, we anchored in the Bosporus. As we diopped the hook, Europe was to port, Asia to starboard, and Russia dead ahead.

Santa Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Grand Bazaar all got attention, not to mention the Vagon-Bleu, Istanbul Hilton, the Florida, and the Karavansarai. Fleet Landing was at the bottom of a steep hill, and an abandoned mosque served as a Beach Guard Hut. The Bosporus flowed by so fast that we seemed to be underway, and Lowryites struggled into liberty boats laden with huge copper trays, hubbly-bubbly pipes, fezzes, and meerschaum pipes.
