Bill's Big Trip "Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do, nothing to kill or die for. Imagine all the people living life in peace. Imagine all the people sharing all the world. I hope someday you'll join us and the world will live as one." John Lennon

Istanbul Turkey

TURKEY | Wednesday, 13 August 2014 | Views [231]

I enjoyed my time in Istanbul, I did a lot of walking around, sitting on a park benches and taking in the sights. Istanbul is a modern and expensive city(of course I think everything is expensive). The pictures tell the story better than I can. If I never hear another pitch to sell me a carpet, it will be too soon.

I have a couple of short videos I would like to pass along, but I haven't figured out how to get them on the site.

A quick recap. I visited 19 countries in 212 days, traveled 46,000 miles by air,15,000 miles by land and spent about $25,000. My feet got beat up a few times and I twisted my ankle a couple of times.  No plane, train, car, bus, tuk tuk or taxi mishaps, not even a fender bender. I wasn't threatened or harassed and amazingly enough I didn't lose anything. It's hard to believe seven months have passed. As I said in my first entry.....a wonderful way to celebrate 60 years of living. It sure was!
