Idiots In Istanbul - Part 2 - Annemarie & Stu

In Part 2 we buy Turkish carpets and take the scariest taxi ride of our lives. We visit the famous Pera Palas Hotel, and then visit the city by night. Then, we saw the strangest thing, a 9 year old smoking a water pipe and drinking coffee?well, IT IS a different culture. We then went to a bar and enjoyed a Turkish football game with the locals. We ended the evening with a very fun trip at the Bazaar. The next day we went to the Mevlevi Monastery where we saw the ceremony of the ?Whirling Dervishes?. Interesting, and dizzying to say the least.
