This will be a quick one, but we arrived last night in Istanbul.

The flight was fine, though Qatar Airways is not really the five-star kind of airlines they advertise, at least not in the peanut gallery. πŸ™‚

It took us a while to get out of the airport due to the visa lines. It is good to keep in mind that you need exact change and dollars or Euros to pay for your visa. I nearly got into a fight with the woman for not taking lira in their own airport, but anyway, they have all the power….

Once we got through immigration and met our tour company, we headed into Istanbul for one night at the Prince Hotel located in Serkici or the Sultanahamet area. We will be returning to that hotel when we go back to Istanbul at the end of the tour.

The first night was quick and we had an early start. More on that in Day 2.
