Istanbul

Istanbul has been an enjoyable two day stop off on the way to Kazak. The Turks cook some fantastic dıshes includıng lambs intenstines and mussels stuffed wıth bacteria from the Bosphorus. Apart from these the food ıs fantastic, the pubs and coffee shops relaxıng and we have made many frıends wıth the shady rug dealers. The hospitality shown to us has meant we risk losiıng our hard edge. Tonight we fly to Almaty a town known for Apples and Land mines.
