Saturday 4th August 2012

We were up early and went out for another wander around after breakfast. We sat in the park for a while as it was cool in there and some of the Fatih Municipality Tourism Delegates were there having a briefing. They are dotted all over Istanbul and if you want any tourist information they will do their best to help you.

We left our hotel in the afternoon and back to Atatürk Airport to catch another Atlas jet flight, this time back to Ercan. Chris met us at the airport and drove us back home stopping to get some supplies on the way in Ileli, where I bumped into the lady who used to run  “Back in Time” in Girne. I wish I had more time to chat to her as it seems her husband has left her. Chris was waiting in the car, so I couldn’t wait long.

Home and we looked at the overgrown garden and all the dirt and cobwebs in the house. Where does it all come from when the house was cleaned before I left?! Looks as though we have our work cut out for the next week or two. We both jumped in the pool and decided to think about it tomorrow!

The last photo is leaving Istanbul.
