We have spent our time exploring all of the 'touristy' areas of Istanbul including the Blue Mosque and the Grand Bazaar. The Blue mosque is really beautiful inside, decorated in exquisite detail. In the Grand Bizarre you can seek out many bargains due to intense competition. Luckily Christine's bag is full to the brim so shopping is out of the question ;-)

Istanbul - The gateway to Asia
We have arrived in Istanbul. What a huge city full of surprises at every corner! After a long journey we arrived at our accomodation perched on the top of a hill overlooking the city. We were rewarded with the most spectacular views!
