She was expecting to go back to her apt on 21st after the outing at Sarayburnu.
Yes I'm sure she did. But what I had meant by questioning that was in regards to when she was flying out. For example she called her dad on the 20th to give him flight details, but if she wasn't flying out until the 22nd why wouldn't she have called him on the 21st to give him the details. And if she had kept in regular touch with her family, and wasn't leaving till the 22nd, then I would think her family would think it was odd that they hadn't heard from her the entire day on the 21st (with the exception of an early morning text to her sister). So I had assumed her family must have at least thought her departure was on the 21st, writing off not hearing from her to the fact she was busy traveling and prepping for travel.
Which if she was leaving on the 21st I always wondered how close she was cutting her schedule ...
.....also which brings me to something else I was thinking about today....one excuse we keep tossing around for her going to the walls is the idea that she desperately wanted to photograph something there....however I have a couple things that seem to not match up with this explanation....
How can it be that someone who only posted 6 Instagram pictures from Turkey, (someone who was supposedly alone in their room every night with plenty of time to edit them, and had posted 5 photos in only 3 days in Amsterdam)....be sooooooo into her photography mission that the very thing they want to do on their last day, maybe even last hours in Istanbul, is go to creepy walls and take photos.....
It seems if photography was such a motivating force that she just HAD to get to those walls and take pictures...someone that motivated would also be motivated enough to have taken, edited, and posted more then 6 photos in her entire stay in Istanbul.
Which makes me really question what was drawing her to those walls. Because I just feel given some other factors it wasn't photography.
Also, (sorry for rambling), I feel that someone, who's main focus of going to those creepy dirty walls was photography...wouldn't have taken the time to look extra girly and feminine that day if their only goal was to crawl around a dirty place to shoot railroad photos.
I mean something just doesn't go together.
