As mentioned in the London post, this quick European getaway was my last big adventure before parenthood. Needless to say I was a little tired during the trip and already suffering from pregnancy brain. So, these factors combined with waiting a year to post about the trip do not make it easy to recall the details. Again, I'll let the photos speak for themselves, and summarize by saying that Istanbul is an incredible city with rich culture, tumultuous history, and delicious food.
