Day 124 Monday 18/01/10

Today was the day that the three of us parted company. EP and MC crept out of Hadi’s flat at 3:15am to drive to the airport. After handing back the hire car we checked our bags in and waited for our flight to Istanbul. The plane was almost on time leaving and we landed at Istanbul a few minutes later than planned.


We were met by the shuttle driver that we had booked to take us to our hostel and we got to the Mavi Guesthouse by 9:00am. We were both tired after the early start from Beirut, so slept until lunchtime.

We awoke to a cold and wet Istanbul. So, digging out the Gortex jackets for the first time of the trip, we walked into the city. The Grand Bazaar was a good choice as it was covered and we could escape the rain.
