The early Bride

0830 and already a Bride is making her way to a new life with the cleaner looking on, I assume she has prepared in a hotel close by.

The Extras
After a couple of hours cruising on the Bosphorus we went into the Cistern which is where water was once stored brought to the city via an aqueduct it'll have been a lot of water.
Next up was a carpet store where many rugs were shown by the owner who lives in Auckland and goes back to Istanbul in winter. The Extra shows the colour change on silk rugs, one was bought and no it doesn't fly.
We went onto visit the Main Bazaar which was mush the same as the Egyptian Bazaar and we ended the day at the Royal Palace, now a museum, where the Sultan's used to live with their harems it was an interesting insight to how a country was ruled and how they lived their lives.

That's it for Turkey tomorrow its Italy.
