Day 2, Istanbul Trip

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

What a beautiful vacation spot! That room looks like it belongs to Disney's "Aladdin" or something, it's just so pretty!

Did you manage to see all the points of interest you had planned?

Most of it! I wish i could've stayed longer though because there were so many other stuff but were a little too far away.

Yah, I went for ANZAC day in 2007, it was great.
A lot of good feelings between Turkey & New Zealand. Everyone was really nice, ate some great food, saw some awesome sites as I'm sure you can imagine:) When I went there though Hagia Sophia had scaffolding all through the inside for restorations...
