Nice! There is a restaurant called Doy Doy (I think that's how you spell it). It is just below the Blue mosque, if you go around it away from Hagia Sophia. There is a roof top patio and a nice view. Also, you should check out Suleimanie mosque, if you haven't already. It is one of Sinan's masterpieces. The view of the Golden Horn is really beautiful.

I got myself an apartment here in Constanti... I mean Istanbul...

so I can go check it out on another day...

So far I am really enjoying it here.

One thing I did notice though... around that area the salesmen are way more aggressive. At least for me I had a number of pushy people and some people trying to scam me... One dude even handed me a menu that had all the prices listed on it... but when I went to the place the menus there had prices that were WAY higher...

See ya later dude. I ain't got time for that.

Right on the square and all that is fine... but across the street at those shops... for 4 or 5 blocks it was all overly pushy salesmen and the like...so I probably won't be hanging out around there much.

But anyway I digress... this city has a lot of stuff to see. That's the moral of the story. LOL!
