Trips, Tracks and Travels

We made a weekend-trip to Istanbul, to get an idea of this town on on the border of Europe and Asia: two days of travel, a day on a guided tour along the highlights:Aya Sofia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazar and Topkapi Palace, and a day for a boattrip on the Bospurus (including a short stop on the Asian side) and a walk in the Galata quarter, between the Galata Bridge and Taksim square, passing the tower (we didn’t climb it - it was quite busy).
On our flight to Isrtanbul, I bought myself a new camera - had to get used to it so not all images are fit for publishing. But Rita did also make pictures - so there is enough to be seen.
No maps or tourist information: Google “Istanbul” or any of the highlights and you’ll have enough to read on your journey
