All a board!

We reach the central regions of Istanbul. For the next week Mike will chill out in beautiful Istanbul with Joanne. Brian and Paul will take about 2-3 days rest and then head onto the Turkish/Greek Border. For tonight we (Brian and Paul) have organised a couchsurf with a Turkish student named Hakan living in the Levent region of Istanbul....Noice!!!!!
