If you have a date in Constantinople...
... she'll be waiting in Istanbul!
Freakin' unseasonable weather! So, you in Iceland get all the warmth and sunshine while we suffer from unseasonable cold and thunderstorms. But according to the weather, it should improve tomorrow. It'd better!!!
I added another continent to my collection, I have now been to Asia! >D Wooohoo! We went over to the non-touristy part of Istanbul on a boat to a town called Harem and walked around for a while and had absolutely lovely food at this hidden (CLEAN TOILETS!) place. Wonderful. Really cheap as well, as they don't raise the prices for lack of tourists.
While we were looking for a restaurant in Asia (heehee!) we heard the prayer calls for the midday prayers. It was very cool. Felt very authentic.
We are waiting a thunderstorm off in a hostel we'll be going to in a couple of days. It seems nicer than the one we are staying at now. It's really well placed for the touristy stuff, the big bazaar, the Blue Mosque, the Ayaz Sofia, Hippodrome and carpet shops in the hundreds. Lots of street hustlers, too. The part of town we are at now is very Turkish, i.e. locals hang out there, not too many tourists. It's a very nice part, lots of nice cafes and stores etc. but in terms of touristy stuff, they don't have too much.
Going now, tata for now. And remember to note any jealous comments on my blog!!! :)
