We have arrived safely in Istanbul, Turkey! We are staying at a small hostel on a very cute cobblestone street. We are planning to stay in the same place for 5 nights, and just do day trips from here, which I am really looking forward to since we've been moving around all of the time. The value of the dollar is hurting us already here so we will have to learn how to eat cheap!We spent our first day in Turkey walking around the city. We are able to walk to many of the sights right from our hostel. We explored the Hoghia Sophia and Blue Mosques. We then went to the Grand Bazaar, the oldest and largest covered marketplace in the world. It was a relaxing day, and we are now relaxing in a coffee shop as I write this.
