On our way to Greece we had a 13 hour layover in Istanbul. We were exhausted, had money stolen from us (but Kevin chased him down and got it back), and I was sick. Overall, we had a good time seeing as much as we could.
We arrived at 5:30 am so the first stop was breakfast at a little cafe. I'm drinking a Turkish apple tea.
