Weekend in Istanbul Part II

In our free time, we got out of the hotel and saw some things.

I had to take a picture of this. It was an elaborately painted mural... on...a forbidden electrical box! (See the inviting waters, flora/fauna? See the skull and crossbones?) It says, "Come in! Get out!"

I took this as we were walking into the ferry terminal. These women are dressed in traditional clothing, even in the country's biggest city.

Here's Istanbul on the European side.

Here are my friends again, about to board the ferry.
