Enjoyed the day exploring the streets around the spice market. We headed towards the train with the idea of taking it to the end of the line, but as we walked around the area we noticed that there were 1.5-hour boat tours of the Bosphorus Sea for 10 TL (about $6). It was a beautiful sunny day, so we jumped on the opportunity. The first ½ of the trip followed along our side of the river, we viewed the Dolmabahce Palace https://timistravels.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1047&action=edit and eventually all the way down to the Rumelihisari Fort https://timistravels.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1850&action=edit&message=6&postpost=v2 before turning around. It was sunny and very nice.
Once we turned around and headed back following along the Asian side of the water it got much more chilly.
It was a great ride but the best part was watching the sunset as we were pulling back into the harbor.
For dinner we had some lamb kabobs and 3 of them cost a grand total of 22 L well under $10.
