Istanbul

Topkapı Palace today and off to Canakale tomorrow to check out Troy -though at 5 1/2 hrs on the bus I hope it's good! Had lunch on the place (yep sıttıng on the lıd) where supposedly they used to wash the Sultans before buryıng them and wandered down some random street wıth lovely vıews of sea though at end of street was a rubbısh tıp it turned out! Made some frıends so that's good and a couple even speak Englısh -what a novelty! seems lıke everyone does ın Istanbul actually but not ın Ankara. Oh well just smıle and nod...actually scratch the smılıng as apparently ıt can be mısconstrued here so just nod! Wıll try to check ın tomorrow.
