Istanbul

Well the internet connection here is terrible so will be brief tonight.

WE have arrived in Istanbul. No drama getting here although the flight was an hour late getting in. The traffic was appalling as the prime minister was apparently here today. So took an hour to get to the hotel, then we had the tour briefing, finally got to our own hotel had dinner and now ready fro bed. The tour sounds full on with an 8am start tomorrow and a 7am start on Sunday. There is a big marathon here on Sun and all the streets are closed from 8am to 2pm so we will be moving out early.

Kev is still sick, is doped up with pseudoeffidrine which u can still by over the counter here.

Mostly english speaking people on teh tour and some aussies so should be fun.

We are spending tomorrow in Istanbul so should have some good photos tomorrow.
