esoknya kami teruskan lagi menjelajah kota istanbul.kali ni kami ikut tour agency.dah book seminggu sebelum.saje try amik agen sbb tempat2 ni jauh sikit dari sultanahmet 🙂

lepas breakfast, kami tunggu agen pick up kat lobi hotel.dalam kul 8.30pg tu bas datang.penuh jugak bas tu.ingatkan satu bas tu je.rupanya ada lagi lebih 10 bas lagi dari agensi yg sama kat tempat berkumpul.

so dah setel kumpul2, tukar2 bas ikut nombor masing2, bas pun bertolak ke destinasi pertama.oh masa dalam bas tu jugak kami pilih menu lunch 🙂 bagus jugak ikut tour agency ni sbb dalam bas along the way tu ketua rombongan tu (local ppl) akan explain apa2 yg nampak di kiri dan kanan jalan…we were going to taksim, the modern side of istanbul 🙂

first destination was…

Dolmabahce Palace
istana ni adalah tempat sultan bersemayam selepas sultan tinggalkan Topkapi Palace.tapi pada tahun 1984(kalau tak silap) istana ni dibuka utk umum/tourist lawat.sorry tak ingat berapa entrance fee sebab dah inclusive dlm tour fees.nak masuk ni kena kaver kasut dgn plastik sbb taknak kotorkan dlm istana.kami di bawa ke hall2, bilik2, toilet2, bilik menunggu pelawat istana, library, ruang tamu, tempat gundik2 dsbg. besar gila istana ni.ada tangga tiang diperbuat dari emas dan kristal.chandelier semua datang dari europe…kat sinilah tempat tinggal rasmi Mustafa Ataturk dan kat sini jugaklah tempat dia mangkat…

yours truly camwhoring in front of the palace

after the tour we were given half an hour to take photos around the palace, garden, fountain.suami sempat lagi amik gambar loncat depan pintu gerbang pfft ;p

next destination is the…

Dolmabahce Mosque
which is just across the palace.nampak tak masjid dia rupa macam blue mosque jugak…

thanks to instagram for making me look ohsoflawless haha
masjid ni kecik sangat.paling ramai jemaah dalam 200 org kot.masjid ni dibina utk sultan2 pada tahun 1851…sbbtu sgt dkt dgn istana.

habis amik2 gambar semua, kami naik bas semula utk patah balik ke sultanahmet

we were given a free tix to a fashion show.haha first time dalam hidup tgk fesyen show.duduk tepi2 runway pastu model2 jalan tayang baju.sambil dijamu the famous turkish apple tea.feeling2 heidi klum.btw baju apa?leather jackets.rupanya tingkat atas tmpt fashion show tu adalah kedai jual leather jackets yg sgt besar!!for info, burberry and few other designer labels jackets are made in turkey!tapi yg diorg jual ni murah sbb harga kilang.bila hantar ke europe/boutiques, they change the labels pastu mark up harga sampai belas2 ribu euro huhu.yg kitorang tgk tu pun up to eur5k!tskkk.so i sempatla sarung beberapa pasang cukup syarat nak merasa.org tu hasut2 tp rasa macam overprice je utk baju yg jarang2 dipakai huhu

its already 12noon.perut pun dah lapar.kami dibawa ke satu restoran bdekatan dgn blue mosque…
we had salad for starters, kebab/grilled fish for main & baklava for desserts.ya allah baklava sedap gilaaaaaaaa baru ku tauuuu.ni haaa

juicy2, rapuh, memang terbaik!tsskkk teringat~~
sempat bagi ‘aaqil pcm masa lunch tu huhu
sejam je makan sbb ikut tour so kena pantas haha.jalan pun pantas haha
pastu naik bas semula utk ke taksim for our next activity…

Bosphorus Cruise
macam feri la.melalui sepanjang golden horn, yang memisahkan asia dan eropah.perjalanan mengambil masa lebih kurang 2jam.nasib baik kami tak mabuk.’aaqil pun behave wp still under the weather…

jambatan yg menghubungkan sultanahmet dan taksim…

selesai cruise.phew…next!

Pierre Lotti hill
this is one of the must visit kalau sape2 yg pergi nak rilek2 minum teh sambil tgk scenery.too bad the day we went it was packed w ppl and tourist.sbb weekend kot.aritu tgk heliza pegi dlm rasa halal nampak mcm xde org haha.tapi serius view kat sini sgt cantik.cuaca pun nyamannn je 🙂

bas tunggu kat bawah.maka kami semua turun dgn cable car!very short la tapi only 8mins gitu.

then they sent us back to hotel

malam tu plan nak pi makan seafood kat kumkapi fish market tapiiiiiii cek2 temp ‘aaqil dah 38c!terus mandikan dia, and google the nearest clinic pharmacy n hospital…

we didnt bring ubat bon*** so mula2 carik farmasi(they dont hav clinic okay!!).they dont hav the ubat so we went to the nearest hospital, Medical Park hospital at Fatih.dlm 15mins gak from sultanahmet.its already 8pm that time.’aaqil dah melepek je sian sgt ;(

lucky for us the paed can speak n understand english.so he did some checkup on ‘aaqil.it was already 39c masa tu huhu.apparently istanbul dont use pressaries but the use ibuprofen taken orally instead.doc kata pi makan 5ml then tunggu 10mins dia nak cek temp turun tak.

alhamdulillah turun sikit so we can go back.phew!otw back we drop by at the pharmacy to buy some meds prescribed…then we go back to hotel coz ‘aaqil need his rest huhu

malam tu suami pi tapau food makan dlm bilik je.takpela as long as ‘aaqil is okay and getting better…
