Meeting With Family In Instanbul

So Stew and I were joined by our mother’s and my brother, Adam for 3 nights and we explored Istanbul together.

Thanks Julie (Stew’s mum) for sending me these images – many of them were taken by her.

I had a bit of a mare with these images so they’re uploaded in no particular order, and there may be some repeats! I’ve captioned many of them.

Istanbul is an overpopulated city with a population of…15 MILLION! I liked Istanbul in that it was a pretty city by the sea. I mostly enjoyed views from the sea and from the top of the Galata Tower, but I found the city on the whole a little soul-less and I wouldn’t rush back. It wasn’t my favourite part of Turkey, but this is certainly my opinion! 🙂 Lots of people love Istanbul and I can appreciate why.
