Istanbul, Turkei


Turkish delight and other fruit sweets in the Spice Bazaar


The open-air book bazaar



Ballikaya Hike outside of Istanbul:
navigating the trail with our guides


inside the Aya Sofya-
one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites


Topkapi Palace
Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror's residence



Fresh grilled corn was available on the streets every half a block from carts like this


The Blue Mosque


Dondurma- the weird, taffy-like traditional Turkish ice cream
(not so good, but definitely worth a try!)


Kapali Carsi (the Grand Bazaar)
with one of the many stores of beautiful lamps


Harry Potter no. 6!
