Just Landed in Istanbul

Huge line for passport control but bags were sitting right there by the time we got through. And in a sea of signs, we found our driver.

Good thing too as the language is so different we wouldn't have had a clue where to turn.

We were so exhausted we hit the sack for two hours when we arrived. Now sitting on the hotel's rooftop terrace for drinks and appetizers. Then we will go for a walk and get a bit more dinner.
Overwhelming impression on the way in of narrow, crowded streets, many people and women with scarves dressed modestly who nonetheless manage to look quite fashionable with touches of sparkle and colour.
