Not much energy left to write, but here are a bunch of pictures. One more day in Istanbul and then on to Nairobi. Finding great food and drink and lots of friendly people.

Nice. But maybe you should change the blog title to Two Bikers Abroad Without Their Bikes. Because I was expecting a lot of pics with bicycles and there aren’t any.
