Turkey Trip Part I

Bonjour people,
Have been busy planning for my future after i got my result for my last semester.
Now my doubts were cleared and finally i have the time to write about my trip in Turkey.
Hurray, there is always sunshine after the thunder storm..wahaha

My tour in turkey lasted about 14 days,but plus minus the travel time, it's only about 12 days..
The experience in Turkey was amazing, ancient architecture and the historical value is really marvelous.Let the picture speaks for all.


1~Waiting for my flight in KLIA.


2~Meal on flight, breakfast is served at 3am Malaysia time.
omg..i feel that my biological clock is getting confused


3~Upon landing,look at my sleepy and puffy eyes, sigh..
couldn't sleep much cuz the person behind kept kicking me..
Arghhhh!!!! wanted to kick their seats back.


4. Here we are in Istanbul, our first stop for the day.
Blue mosque also known as Sultan Ahmet mosque was built between 1609 and 1616.

It was originally constructed as a church between 532 and 537 ,
