Istanbul Round 2

We are hanging out in Istanbul for a couple days before heading off to Cairo and its soooooo nice to be here. After not leaving Georgia for over 7 months I'm having a little bit of culture shock, in a good way. Plus, since I have done the tourist thing here before its nice to just relax and enjoy it at a slower pace. I'll be back after Egypt to explore Eastern Turkey for a bit too. I think I need to change the name of this blog to "Georgia to Sakartvelo to Turkey to Egypt to Nepal to India!"

Taking the ferry across the Bosphorous from the European side of town to the Asian side..

Dining at a nice restaurant with no Russian pop!

Yummm. Baklava and Turkish delight, and more importantly, free samples..
