First time in a Muslim country. Uncomfortable at first, then began to enjoy it.
The food, people, sites....all very interesting. Turkish people are very warm and friendly.
First time I heard the call to pray, the hair on my neck stood up. The only time I've ever heard that before is in movies.
Since you hear it five times a day, I quickly became used to it and actually enjoyed hearing it and knowing people were off to pray
at the mosques.
Stayed at the Sirkeci Konak. Great location, near all the big sites.
