Insert here: Istanbul

Insert a comment about the amazing culture, history and fashion of Istanbul but flippantly say that the best thing about it was the food (especially the Turkish ravioli and gozleme above).


Insert thoughtful comment about Istanbul being like a Eastern Barcelona.


Insert a comment about how the Turks sure know how to build a mosque.

Insert a comment about Tokapi being the name of some palace as well as a Turkish Restaurant on Enmore Road.

Insert a comment about how Tokapi has a room for everything.

Insert some comment about how the lead figure in the Turkish revolutionary statue looks like he is saying 'bring me the balls of our oppressors.'

Insert a comment about how Ruth loves to drink John's coffee.


Insert some comment about how everything seemed like you were in an episode of Game of Thrones. Insert a plea for anyone who hasn't seen Game of Thrones to go and watch it immediately.


Insert comment about the sprawling crazy nature and age of the Grand Bazaar and...

...insert a comment about how the Bazaar ended up being like an ancient crappy shopping centre.

Insert a comment about how great the night life is in Istanbul.

Insert some witty about being so stupid that you didn't realise that a cistern was used for things other than toilets.


Insert joke here about how we could never live in Istanbul as Ruth would adopt every stray cat she came across.

Insert slightly sucky comment about the final perfect sunset in Istanbul.

Insert comment about the perfect last night in Istanbul.


Insert a comment about even grumpy Jon had a good time...
