Canadian Turkish Explorers....hahah

Chad took me to dinner for my birthday. It was interesting that we got to choose our own fish. IT was delicious!
Chad and I at the blue mosque, which has tiles (all blue in colour). It is the only mosque in the world with 6 minarets. Apparently, the story behind that is, the word "GOLD" and "SIX" in turkish are similar. So when the Sultan asked for a GOLD mosque...he got one with 6 minarets.
Houses worth millions of dollars off the Bosphorus. This is the river connecting the black see the marmara sea. It divides ASIA and EUROPE. Traveling two continents in one day is tiring. haha
Chad and I on a cruise with the turkish flag behind us!
Beautiful view of the city. We met some travelers from Detroit, Chicago, and Saudi.
