    Istanbul (2)

    Ooops!

    This morning, I sort of, gatecrashed a Palestinian / Iraqi demonstration outside a mosque (in error) - me looking like an overweight American on tour...

    Feeling a bit like that Sherrif in Blazing Saddles...

    I think that may have been to do with the "Mavi Marmara" commining into port.

            Well...

            What a great place.
            Good weather.
            Very clean and safe.
            Good sightseeing.
            Highlights... Grand Bazaar and a trip over to Asia by boat.
            Good hotel although a little off the beaten track (Crowne Plaza Old City) - close to the tram stop.
            A bit more expensive than I was expecting - beer pricy.

            Al in all I'm glad I got away.

            Where to next on my Holiday Inn reward points?

              Are you really sure your not in Birmingham? Sounds a like everyday life here.
