Turkey Day

Before we planned our trip to Istanbul, I can honestly say I didn't know much about the city formerly known as Constantinople. But after walking around last night and spending five hours with our tour guide today, I'm quickly learning.

For example, did you know that Istanbul is the only city that lies on two continents - Europe and Asia? Or, how about Muslim isn't a religion in Turkey but the individual that follows Islam? Or that the meatballs found in Turkey are a collection of odd proteins that are somewhat chewy and should be avoided at all costs? What will I discover tomorrow?
