🇹🇷 Mosque Day
🐌 Istanbul: the place where Google Maps ALWAYS tells you the estimate for walking is lower than driving. No matter the distance.
✅ Hotel in Cappadocia is booked. Picked on one of the apps, and then talked to them directly on WhatsApp. Skip the middle man!
🍺 A very nice IPA, made by a huge corporation.
🤪 I can tell the little one will get used to the time difference, and start waking up on time, on our last day here!
We’ll move back, and she will have to wake up three hours earlier, poor thing.
🎨 🇹🇷 Cool street art, on top of a vibrant sticker life, can be found here as well.
We got to see some nice ones on the side streets of Beyoğlu, so far the nicest part of town.

There’s no other way…
"Before this trip Lena and I promised each other that we’d have regular chill days for the kids’ sake. And by “promised each other” I mostly mean Lena made me promise to her that I would be more relaxed than usual."

✌️ Enjoying this country. Quite a bit.
🇹🇷 Oops, forgot to add movieStar’s favorite of the day!
🇹🇷 Bear with me, these might probably almost surely in all likelihood be the last ones today… Hopefully.
🇹🇷 Tomorrow it will rain a lot, so I’m posting extra today. We did have a wonderful day.
🇹🇷 The little one felt better, that means more photos. First batch of the day:
🚶🏻♂️ Spent all afternoon walking around town with the movieStars, and met a friend. She showed us a part of town we wouldn’t go on our own, and a very cool one at that.
Photos (many) later.

🤪 tinyMovieStar waking up, looking out the window: “We don’t need to go for a walk, we can see everything from here”.
🇹🇷 6:34, prayer time. Being so close to the Blue Mosque has this perk, we can hear the muezzin as if he was standing in the room with us.
