Today’s trip was to Örtakoy. What a change from veggy markets and cheap clothing markets. This was a craft or art market set up on the foreshore and next to a beautiful small mosque projecting onto the Bosphorus.
I experienced cumpir (baked potatoes with Turkish fillings) from a shop with wonderfully friendly men. The others had been there before and they are won over by the politeness and friendliness.
The pics can tell the story.
