ReplyDeleteDarla
I'm am definitely going to read this. It looks like such a wonderful city.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll have to look for this at the bookstore. The library may also have it, but it looks like I should have my own copy. When we visited Turkey, we only changed planes in Istanbul so I did not get to see the city at all. I really enjoyed our time in Antalya so hope one day to return and see all there is to see in Istanbul!! In the meantime, thanks for letting me see Istanbul through your eyes and your blog!!
ReplyDeleteEver since I started reading Orhan Pamuk's Istanbul stories have I wanted to visit this city. One day ... ;-)
ReplyDeleteToplanti yerine Istanbul turu yapmak nasil hosuma giderdi ahh! Hava da gene guzellesti, ne sansliyiz soguklar sadece 1-2 gun suruyor artik xo.

ReplyDeleteThere's so much written about Turkey and I wish I could just pop over like that easily, you're a good ambassador for Turkey :D
