Hi Friends: I'm in Istanbul

We have just wrapped up our first night in Istanbul.  It all began with a flight from the US to Paris and then onward I got to travel with most of my group members on this flight. It was not eventful; just watched two movies and then slept the whole rest of the way. Great news, thanks to the airline I can claim that I have seen the Disney movie Frozen. Then after that I watched The Jungle book, a classic. When we landed we headed straight to the hotel where I was greeted by my mom. We also got to have a nice romantic dinner; then we had a night excursion with friends. All and all it was a good start to my trip.
