Sultanahmet SquareGoing back to bed didn't work. So we decided to get an early start. After a breakfast of yogurt and chocolate baklava, we spent some time on our language studies and then headed to Kadikoy via the bus. There, we caught the Sea Bus to Eminonu on the European side, (less than $1.00 each) and headed to Sultanahmet Square.
The Blue Mosque is on one side of this square and the Aya Sofia is on the other. With an entrance fee of close to $10.00 each, we decided we would wait until we were richer, and ready for a full day to see it all.
Today as we headed to the bus I passed a friend we had met on our first day in Istanbul. We were standing near a food stand where we had grabbed a Kebap sandwich the day before. As we parted ways our friend pointed at the stand and said..."By the way, don't eat there...all they sell is Sheep Guts"....Yum. (I had wondered why it was so crunchy).
