Not Constantinople

Well, after numerous polls and mentions in the blog, constant harrassment by John, and literally thousands of emails from all of you fans, I've decided to write a blog entry.

So we made it to Istanbul. We took a sleeper train from Thessaloniki that left at 8:00pm, and got here around 10:00am. The train ride was really nice. John and Matt were together and I was with a stranger, but he disappeared part way through the night and I got a single. The hostel's great and it's a beautiful day. We're going to walk around the city and see the sights. Then tonight we're taking Turkish Hamams, where we'll sit in a sauna for a while, then we'll be "severely scrubbed" by fat Turkish men followed by a massage. Apparently it's a big tradition here and tourists we've talked to say it's amazing.

I've been told I'm taking too long for this sort of blog entry. I guess it'll take some time for me to get back in the swing of things. More later!!!
