Two days of sitting in offices and the usual bureaucratic hassles resulted in our release from the port of Istanbul.
WE ARE FREE AT LAST.
None of us had ever driven on the right side of the road , sothat was a big adventure in itself. After crossing the Bosporus on a car ferry we settled quickly back in Istanbul.
An extra security guard has been put on tonight to watch over us as the boss stays the last night for a while in a hotel.
In the morning he will find out if the security guard has been a sleep or not. We hope for the best as we do not want things missing already.
Unfortunately three people in the group already lost money or some goods.
Tomorow some time for sightseeing and then of to Gallipoli in the early afternoon.
It has been cool here so there is no fear for overheating.
