Trip 1 of 2008 - Istanbul - And we didn't buy a carpet
About this blog
We arrived in Istanbul in the evening and were expressed to our hotel at well over the speed limit but we didn't care. As soon as the driver turned off into the cobbled streets of Sultanahmet we knew we were on a winner. After we'd checked in the porter offered to show us the rooftop terrace and wow the view! The Blue Mosque to the left, the Haghia Sophia to the right and the Bosphorus behind us. Better still it was warm.
