Turkey Adventure

Flew from Bucharest to Istanbul. Only 1 1/2 hour flight.
We have booked a ride to the hotel through the hotel driver. Due to traffic 🚦 we take a good hour or more meandering through streets to "avoid traffic" which was fine as the price was fixed and we got to see a bit of the Old Town and the traffic mayhem here .

We check in and the boss man gives us a rundown of the area, what tours are good ones, etc.

The call to prayer reminds me of Morrocco.

We settle in and Steve sleeps all afternoon. The hunting has stuffed his body clock as they basically hunt at night.

When Steve wakes we go for a walk around Old Town streets close to us.
We get "conned", with our permission 😊, to "quick watch the sunset on the terrace" restaurant. It's time for tea so we say yes. View was spectacular, food was awesome.

We like this place.Read more
