Less than 12 hours to go before I leave here and start the long journey to İstanbul I am just starting to get excited

But I haven't started packing yet!!!
Suppose I better start on the packing - but no idea what to take as the weather forecast says it is warm but I somehow can't belive that as it is below freezing here and snowing heavily!!!

heyecanlanıyorum

For what it's worth as İm in İzmir, its extremely soft here. 15 to 20 degrees during the days.. and from what I noticed on the weatherforcasts for as long as Im here.. İzmir and İstanbul usually differ only a few degrees, so I'd pack for around 15 degrees day time.. but in the evening it gets pretty cold here so for the evenings I should take something warm.

Have a great time there

Even though there is a typo in the word, couldn't you have guessed that it is Beyoğlu, the part of Istanbul from Karaköy to Taksim? I think you must have spent quite a couple of hours in the neighbourhood..

I think I only visted Sultanahmet and Taksim areas of İstanbul. But I wasn't there long enough to really get my bearings on which area is where - means I will have to return and learn more

If you took the train that circles at Taksim Square, it goes down the hill through beyoglu to galatasaray high school, and then startz going uphill again until it gets to Tunel, which is in Galata. There are several alternative bars in the area near there where the US Consulate used to be. But Beyoglu itself has hundreds of clubs maybe.

Must have sent them to the wrong airport Sui, I didn't notice them.
It was lovely to meet you and I promise to bring chocolate as well as bacardi next time. Sam (Bod's better half!) xx
