Istanbul

Baklava.
Turkish Delight.
Architecture.
What's not to love?
With the recent bombings people were really afraid for me to be traveling to Turkey. Heck my solo trip even added my mom. 😂 It is a real threat, but I'm more likely to die in a car accident back home. However last night I got an email from our government that Turkish sources are reporting threats today (Easter) from ISIL. 
But, oh well. Turkey is beautiful. We avoided rain. It's been about 48 degrees. 
Yesterday we visited the Blue Mosque,
Hagia Sofia,
Topkapi Palace,
Grand Bazaar,
Spice Market
and walked all over. 22,000 steps to be exact. Thanks Fitbit.
