Bosphorus (Saturday in Istanbul)

The Bosphorus or Bosporus, also known as the Istanbul Strait is a strait that forms part of the boundary between Europe and Asia. Istanbul, to the west is Europe. And the rest of Turkey including Adana where we live, is to the East and is Asia.

It is impossible to summarize our boat ride only this strait in just a few photos. But I will do my best. Most of the tour group went upstairs on the boat but we opted to take our kiddos into the warmer downstairs.

We had fun playing with hats (love Isaac's smile in this one):


We also saw some amazing views:



Posed for some good pictures:
And took some nice naps:
While watching some more great views:



And enjoying some family time:
And relaxation:
Before docking and taking a cable car down a small mountain. Following this adventure would be Elijah's meltdown at McDonalds and naps back at the hotel. What a great day 3!
