An Amazing City

A week of London
Arriving January 19, the trip was across Europe and it was late when Adam, Chad, Nick and myself arrived. We checked into our hostel Piccadilly Backpackers in Piccadilly Circus, London. We saw on a map a Fish & Chips restaurant so we all set off to have our first meal in London. We walked in circles for a very long time before we decided to ask a local where we should go eat to have the best fish & chips around, she told us to go to Rock & Sole. I can personaly tell you that out of many restaurant ventures that Rock & Sole has the best fish & chips in London. After a good meal we all called it a night.

Istanbul through a Lens

Bus-tour of Istanbul
We all took a double-decker bus around Istanbul. It was freezing that day but being on the top of the bus was the best way to see everything and take pictures. Some of the things on the tour are Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Bosphorus.Photobucket
