Day 67 Turkey, 24/11/2010 Istanbul. Just hanging out in Istanbul while we regroup and wait for some important post.

The hunt for a Syrian Visa began and ended abruptly when we arrived just after the Consulate's 2 hour long working day ended! Of course they were still there but unable to answer any questions. Oh well we got a form at least, just a shame it was such a long walk. Spent the rest of the day ambling down Istiklal street (Istanbul's main shopping and eating street) and the roads around Sultanahmet.

Contacted Justin and Emma from rolling-tales.com to see if they fancied meeting for a drink. They are wintering in Istanbul before setting off again on their travels in April. Hopefully we can get some insider information on cycling in Turkey!

Dined heartily on a Tavuk şiş (chicken kebab) washed down with an Efes or two!
