Two Continents in a Day

Greetings,



With our legs and feet aching from all the walking.... we enjoyed the afternoon cruising the Borphorus.

One minute we were in Europe.... the next minute we were on the opposite banks and in Asia.

We traveled from Asia to Europe. Europe to Asia. All afternoon bouncing between two continents. Not a lot of places you can do that in the world.... actually I think Istanbul is the only city in the world encompassing 2 Continents.

The view from the ferry of Istanbul is simply amazing. It looks like other cities... just with minarets soaring high in the air.... everywhere.

Crossing the bridge... Harry was here this time last year, but on the Mount Whitney.

Another Palace.... we have more pictures, but for later.

After touring Istanbul by its waterways.... and having a nice lunch complete with a lot of Turkish Apple Tea.... I went in search of the bathroom....

.....and this is what I found.

You would be surprised the amount of leg muscles required to pop-a-squat above this.... and the balance needed. Whew... there was no way to couple that with the rocking boat.

Needless to say..... I held it!

Blessings to those accurately marking their territory,

Kristie
