We're here! We've been here for a couple of days and are actually leaving Istanbul in the morning. So, I'm already behind in the blog scene. some of it is my low techno IQ and part is that I've been having too much fun to stop to blog. (It's mostly that one)

The adventure began early in the morning. Steven and Jarred picked us up to take us to the airport to catch our 9am flight. Luckily, we allowed lots of time. We put suitcases in the 2 cars and the 6 of us pilled in too. Not necessarily, the car with our suitcase. As we were exciting I-285 to the airport, I jokingly asked if we all had our passports. Nick thought I was pulling his leg because he thought I had his passport. Oh NO!!!! Turn around! We told the guys to go ahead and check in and go to the gate. Somehow, we made it home and back to the airport in an hour! We made the plane! After comparing notes with the guys, found out that the security guys look at Andy a little strangely, when they checked his suitcase, which was actually mine and it had women's clothes in it!
The flight to La Guardia was uneventful and an easy transfer in 2 taxis to JFK. We had plenty of time before our flight on Turkish Air so we all had Korean barBQ hot dogs for lunch. Really yummy!
When we boarded the plane, we each got a little makeup looking bag that had footies, tooth brush, tooth paste, lip balm and a few other goodies. Quite a nice start to the long trip.
Oh dear. It's time for our dinner on the roof, overlooking the bosphorus, the Hagia Sophia. We ate there the first night too. Really great food and view
More later.
