Arrived in Istanbul

Well, we have arrived safely in Istanbul and had our first full day of sight-seeing. We visited the hippodrome, the Blue Mosque, and the Aya Sofia this morning. After lunch, we went to the Topkapl Palace. We got back to the hotel around 5:30 pm and had our History of Science and Math class until dinner time at 7:30. Everyone is now enjoying free time until curfew at midnight.

We have a little trouble with using the internet here. It seems even my blogpage directions are automatically translated into Turkish and I can't figure out how to change them. So, I may not be able to upload pictures yet, but will keep trying. Hope everyone is well back home!
