Merhaba from Istanbul

Merhaba from Istanbul!! We are safe and sound no surprises there! The flights were very good, long but really good. We have adapted to turkish life quickly ....have rugs, gold jewellery,and the football craze! Having awoken early with morning prayers booming from the streets we had breakfast with views of the blue mosque and Aya Sofya Mosque. Both equally as stunning in the morning sun. Trotted down to the Bazaar and explored.....very cool. The city is very interesting with so much history that your head hurts. Off for lunch now then time to catch our flight to Dalaman then our first time driving in turkey (woohoo) off to Yakabag.

Catch you later on the turquiose coast.....
love Philippa and Bevan

I have no words of wisdom, but the answer to the question "istanbul?" is no way!, its raining, cold and there is no chance of getting a tan! Oh and Merhabard was very angry on John Campbell last night due to the power cuts! Ha! Im a comic genious!
Take Care Guys, we Miss you already!

Awesome guys sounds like your having a blast already! I'm sure you've heard about the huge power cuts we had here in auck? (luckily us ppl on the shore got didn't get cut off. However certain Digitalus members tried to get the day off work anyway!). Luckily we've got a good dictatorship going here ;)

Anyhoo, back to the grind. Hope it's going well and looking forward to some pictures! Take care, Dan
