Market, Mosque and Mayhem! - Saturday 20 Oct 2012
... the room is so big, but unlike a church there is no statue or pictures just scriptures. The ceiling were so beautifully designed and the domed patterning reminded me of the bowls we saw in the market. We didn't stay for very long as there were about to have a prayer but we were amazed just how beautiful it was both outside and inside this mosque.

The movement here was very strategic with donors and activists ...
Chapter Four - Bosphorus Cruise
... sum of TL 10 (US$ 5.25) each for a 1½ hour cruise up the Bosphorus. This is the world's narrowest strait used for international navigation connecting the Black Sea with the Mediterranean. At its narrowest point it is less than half a mile wide. Lining each side of the strait are attractive and desirable suburbs. Everything we see is very well kept and ...
