'Ello luvs!

hi all! We are FINALLY here and its amazing! The mosques are huge and beautiful and the whole city itself is full of colorful flowers and is just wonderful! Im sitting on our rooftop terrace, watching it rain as ships pass on the bosphorous. have i mentioned that its REAL COOL here!?

I'm sure youre going to be shocked by this, but already broken something. and by broken, i mean almost caught on fire. So, turns out that you cant just leave your hair straightener plugged in for an extended amount of time.... it will pop, smoke and fry both your converter and hair appliance. lesson learned. we will now have frizzy hair in all of the pictures from here on out. so theres that.


We are so jet lagged, its not even funny. We visited the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sofia. They are both enormous and amazing. After that, we spent the day reading, resting, getting to know our little area of town, and trying to catch up on some much needed sleep.

Also, we were so desperate for coffee, we made a trip to the local starbucks..DONT JUDGE!

well kids, árry potter book is calling my name.
ill talk to you tomorrow, were going to the grand bazaar...GET EXCITED!
