Welcome

Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've been. You've been in the pipeline, filling in time, Provided with toys and scouting for boys. You bought a guitar to punish your ma, And you didn't like school, And you know you're nobody's fool, So welcome to the machine.

Sultanahmet Camii

Sultanahmet Camii

Sultanahmet Camii

No matter how many times I've seen it, I just love this mosque. The grand architecture and the beautiful location, the gardens in front. It's just such a superb sight, that I can't help but photograph it and then of course post it here!

Horse-drawn Carriages

Horse Buggies @ Sultanahmet

I saw this horse-drawn carriage at Sultanahmet. I hadn't seen these before, so I'm guessing it's a seasonal thing and only becomes available in the summers. The tourists have hit Istanbul hard this season. I see so many people despite the politically charged situation and the protests being arranged.

Not to stray from the topic, I just missed my fiance and was wondering if we'd get to visit Istanbul together and take a ride in one of these.

Picture Perfect Maldives!

The flying boat in Maldives!

Saw this pic while randomly surfing the internet, and I just fell in love with the idea of visiting Maldives!
