Day 68 Turkey 25/11/2010, Istanbul. Could be here for a while!

The hunt for a Syrian visa continued and this time concluded with failure. The Consulate are only allowed to issue visas for Turkish nationals, so we have no choice but to chance it at the border. Of course we could have found this out yesterday, if they hadn't ignored us when all I wanted to do was ask a question!

Slightly dejectedly we headed back into the city, had a welcome coffee and then went to walk round the very touristy Grand Bazaar.

We met up with Justin and Emma in the evening and had a good evening chatting over a few beers and some delicious mezes in the Flower passage area just off Istiklal street. We will hopefully meet up again before we leave.
