Here we are in Istanbul... with wonderful views from the Hotel Restaurant over the city skyline. As we enjoyed supper overlooking the bridges over the Bosphorous (one of which has lights that change colour) we were treated ti the Call to Prayer from one of the many Mosques that are dotted across the city.
Our journey into Istanbul took us through the Square that sits between Aya Sofia and the Sultan Ahmed Mosque (commonly known as the Blue Mosque) so we were treated to wonderful views of both as we journeyed towards our hotel.
It's been a long day after an early start (some of the group left home at 3.30am!) and then an hour's delay flying out of Heathrow. Tomorrow is going to be a full day... so very exciting!
