MUSTACHE MARCH
Istanbul. Paul. Bazaar.
This is a tough week to blog, because it has been so epic!
So the past week we have been traveling all through Turkey, jumping from Europe to Asia, from mountains to beaches, from boats to planes. I ate some crazy food, saw some AMAZING art, and did some crazy things.
Ok, 1,000 photos!
Ready Set Go!

| The Blue Mosque....BAM! |
 |
| The food here was so CHEAP! So many street vendors I LOVED IT! These are roasted chestnuts! |
 |
| It was cold and rainy the first few days |
 |
| This is inside the Blue Mosque. Awestruck. |
 |
| This is Hagia Sophia. HUGE HUGE HUGE church. I couldn't capture it with my camera but the ceiling keeps going up. |
 |
| This was the Turkey Archaeology Museum. |
 |
| This are some cool peeps. The wall to the left and right though is what decorated the entrance to the Babylonian kingdom. So cool! |
 |
| This croissants were filled with nutella. So I had like 2....hundred. |
 |
| We went on a ferry ride through the Bosphorus. We had Europe on one side and Asia on the other. |
 |
| There is the bridge from Europe to Asia |
 |
| This is the Basilica Cistern. Red Bull wakeboarded in here. paretttty cool. |
 |
| Then the bazaars. WOW. It is the size of a small town and just packed with people and cheap jerseys and cool souvenirs. Don't worry. If you are one of the few that read this, then chances are I got you something here. |
 |
| Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha, Check out this Bazaa |
 |
| Did I? .... Nahhhh. Wanted to though |
 |
| This is Gallipoli. There was a huge battle here in WWI. Thousands and Thousands of young men died on both the Turkish side and the New Zealand/Australian Side. It was cold and windy that day. I tried to imagine standing on those shores about to die. Sad stuff. |
 |
| This kid was younger than Madeline when he died. Gives you shivers. |
 |
| My main man Phil at Troy. Not much left of Troy to be honest. It was cool to close your eyes and imagine. |
 |

 |
| Assos |
 |
| Pergamum |
 |
| This is on the chore of the Aegean Sea that we later jumped into. It was cold. Very cold. |
 |
| At least he is honest. |
 |
| Saw this old man drawing. Thought is was rad. |

| The Turks love their Turkish Delight! |
 |
| I found this guy in Turkey and we played some backgammon. He beat me. I beat him. Then he won the tie breaker. I love BG |
 |
| I told this kid, "I am from California!" He had no idea what I was saying...or why I took this picture. |
