Turkey Day 11

Our second day in Istanbul we visited the Blue Mosque (you haven’t been in Istanbul if you haven’t visited that). The train station you see in the movie is the European end station of the the Orient Express. After the Blue Mosque we went to Topkapi Palace, the old Sultans Palace. We only saw a tiny bit, we kinda had it with all the old buildings and we just chilled for a bit. In the afternoon we went for a boat ride on the Bosporus, the strait that forms the border between the European and the Asian part of Istanbul. For the boat we did some more sightseeing, some of the worlds prime properties are there.

That evening we visited a barbershop, where I got a nice shave and Hilco got a shave and a haircut. He was really pleased with it, but my sister hated it.
