Visiting Turkey
>> Tuesday, August 25, 2009
I wrote this itinerary like two weeks ago while my hubby was in Seoul for a business trip. We have planned to celebrate our baby's 1st birthday in Istanbul together with my in-laws.
Things to do and places to visit in Turkey:
- Visit the Sultanahmet Mosque, also known as the Blue Mosque
- Try the Turkish ice cream called "dondurma"
- Go to the Asian side of Istanbul
- Eat lots of kebabs and doner
- Visit my little sis-in-law at school
- Visit the Bhosphorous Bridge
- Meet Elizabeth & her family
- Visit Ruvelyn & her baby
- Learn cooking some Turkish foods
- See hubby's relatives
- Try Turkish delight and other pastries
- Experience the bazaar & marketplace
- Visit a plantation of tulips
- Ride an air balloon
- Celebrate Askim's birthday
Unfortunately, after a revisit to the Turkish Embassy in Makati, we learned that my baby and I can't get any visa for Turkey that fast. After the registration of marriage and birth, we have to wait a minimum of 1 month before we could fly. Hayyy.. the birthday celebration in Turkey will be moved for sure. I hate it, but there's nothing else we could do. We'll probably make it in October, though.
For the meantime, I have to plan our baby's birthday celebration here in Manila the soonest. The date is September 25. Today is Askim's 11th month. Waaah! I have only one month to prepare, so later.. İstanbul'a Gidiyorum!
