Walked around Sibenik, had a drink and watched the sunset. A very old town on the interior coast. Had dinner and met people from Germany and a couple from New York, made for an interesting evening. Late night gelato, and then back to our lovely room. Another day to be thankful for. 🙏Lue lisää

Headed back to Zagreb, crazy day. Checked into our room about 7 minutes from airport. Did laundry, returned the car. repacked for flight to Istanbul and then out to dinner two blocks from where we are staying. The young man that owns the apartment is also a taxi driver and picked us up after we dropped the car and will take us to the airport at 6:00am. Did I say I didn’t know I needed a Visa for Turkey 🤪😫🥹 . I had to apply online at 9:00 am for a rush Visa and had the wonderful girl at the front desk in Sibenik assist me with printing it out, because of course you can’t have it just digital. Until tomorrow… thank you Jesus once again for helping to turn around another bump in the road. On with the journey…Lue lisää

Unbelievable, 15 million people and it all moves like clock work. We came through customs and then out of the airport which is huge. The driver gave us a ride of a lifetime, I should have video taped it.🫣😬😲. Arrived at our charming place and was treated by our hotel reception who served us Turkish coffee and John had tea, he then told us all the things we could do and checked us in. We went out and wandered and met Savaş and he gave us a little tour. That’s a story for later 😉. Had a wonderful dinner and met Mika the restaurant owner. I love this place.Lue lisää

Istanbul Day 2
7. lokakuuta 2023, Turkki ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F
Up early, breakfast on the roof top in our hotel. Breathtaking views. We went to visit Hagia Sophia and we were waiting in a line early this am, which was an hour long, when I eyed our newest son Savaş who was working in the square. I called out and he said Baba, Nan and kissed us and hugged us and said are you in line? He said follow me quickly we followed him to the front of the line as he said, “excuse me, they missed their tour group and need to go in” 😉 so once again it’s good to know a guy.
Hagia Sophia Mosque, is a mosque and a major cultural and historical site in Istanbul, Turkey. It was very beautiful, shoes off before you enter, and scarfs for women is a must.
We then went to The Blue Mosque which was also very beautiful.Lue lisää

Left the mosques and from there we went to the Basilica Cisterna it is the largest of several hundred ancient cisterns that lie beneath the city of Istanbul, Turkey. That was our morning. Walked through the smaller Bazar, had a little lunch and went to the “Grand Bazar” I went into sensory overland , wandered a bit and then went on a two hour boat tour which was beautiful and very cool 😎 it’s been very warm here.Lue lisää

Sunday Morning in Istanbul
8. lokakuuta 2023, Turkki ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F
Up early and out, walked down to the road on the sea and it was closed for a marathon. We hiked back up to the top and John figured out how to get a metro card. Boarded the tram and crossed over to the Asia side. Walked straight up a hill and crested at the top to find St Antonina of Padua behind a facade. It was a beautiful mass with their “Amazing Choir” when they brought up the gifts, it was 20 plus people and children bringing fresh fruit, household supplies, and baskets filled with offerings. At the end of mass the little kids all had something to say about Mary. It was so beautiful we didn’t want to leave. The men behind me and next to me both had beautiful voices and sang out loud with their baritone voices. We wandered up the street after and John worked for his ice cream cone. Took metro partway back and then ended up in a taxi and he brought us back in a jiffy. We will head out later for dinner…
Thank you God for another beautiful day 🙏❤️🙏Lue lisää
