As usual, I was the last one who woke up. Had our breakfast at 8a.m. at the rooftop.. They served really nice olive for breakfast...
Must-Try-Food-
Menemen

We went to the blue mosque first.. Took a few photos in front of the fountain.
Little did i realize that I dropped my USA cap.
It was a lazy morning  for me...
I watched "Murphy Law of Love"  until 1 a.m. the night before...

There are so many people and since it allowed entrance till 7 p.m.
We decided to come back at 6 p.m.

So , we went to the Topkapi palace aka Cannon Gate.

There are lot of ceramic made utensil from all different countries such as France , China, Germany , as well as swords, horse wear and stuffs.
It is one of the large palace in Istabul and the primary residence of the Ottoman Sultan.
The palace made up of 4 main courtyard and many small building.

After that, we went to Basilica Cistern, is all about the story of one of the three sister.
It is also known as the Sunken Palace.

We even went to the park right above the basilica to do some geocaching but too bad we didny manage to find it.
Then, I had Menemen as lunch

Then, we went to the Grand Bazaar, famous for selling spices and some souvenirs such as the evil's eye, symbolise good luck and charm.

We tried the turkish ice cream there. 10TL each, felt like we were being tricked
Turkish people love to play with it so we couldn't catch it

After that we went for lunch, I get to try the menemen, eggplant with spices.

Then, we went to the blue mosque.
We were not allowed to go in just like that but need to wear head scarf.

Then, we even went on the Bosphorus tour, for 1 and a half hour. We took thousands photos.
The last stop was Galata Tower.
