Day 2, Istanbul Trip

[toffee_and_tea]

We had a nice breakfast at the hotel where there was like, only one other person because we came down early. I wanted to get out before the tour group crowd ascended and good thing too because there was already more people out and about than I expected, and then later it was just a swarm of them

I've always wanted to go there. So much history. :)

Glad you are having a good experience!

[toffee_and_tea]

Definitely; I know I didn't even get to scratch the surface of all it had to offer.

It was great! :)

I would love a place like that too, except I would probably have a tough time getting up..like..ever haha.

Love the 'you da man' caption!

The call to prayer would have had even more of a presence in person right?

[toffee_and_tea]

Haha yeah, i wouldn't ever want to leave..

yeah. i just like it how how one starts and then they all come out at once, and the unitary presence of it.

I want a place like that too. Free of all the clutter in my room lol.

That poem looks kool too. Except I bet the letters are too small to be read.

Is it freezing in turkey? It looks really cold there from the photos.

just imagining lounging all day.. sounds like a dream..

It's too bad they didn't provide translations for it. It was probably something like, 'dearest darling. Your butt - I like it'

Yeah, it's winter over there.

[toffee_and_tea]

It really is! It's like a circular building with three of those couches with a fireplace and just seems like a cool sort of place to hang out.
