Turkey Day 8 Safronbolu - Istanbul

This morning was the simplest breakfast!!! OMG. It was bad IMHO. anyway at the next Petrol station, there was Burger King. So hubs immediately went there to get a burger.
Drove back to Istanbul to take a Bosphorus Cruise trip. Here we caught another pokemon which we didn't have! YAY!






Lunch was at a restaurant near the ancient site Hippodrome. Next we visited the Blue Mosque.

after visiting Blue Mosque, we went down to the Grand Bazaar for some shopping. Here I bought a Medium sized Turkish table Lamp for 50Lira, Turkish Apple tea with 2 cups 20Lira, a candle holder 20Lira, Evil eyes at 2Lira where I bought 10 for my tree back home.
hubs was eyeing at the beef kebab...so we ate there and I had a cup of orange juice. Total bill was 40Lira.
 we bought some roasted chestnuts to try. Not as "wet" as Singapore.
