Sunday - Shehzade Mehmet
Final day, nothing organised, up for breakfast out of the hotel by 9.00 First stop was the local Mosque (Shehzade Mehmet), cost 5 Lira to enter, and Rosemary had to borrow a head scarf. New carpets were being laid.
We then walked to see some mosaics at the Kariye Museum 'Church of the Holy Saviour Outside the Walls' or 'in the Country' (chora). We then walked back along the Golden Horn and back to the hotel. Rosemary did not enjoy this walk, it was quite warm, and the banks of the GH are not altogether pretty along that area. We managed to get to the Hotel Diana restaurant for lunch for a final kebab and then left for the airport.
Very much in evidence, weere the local Russian dealers packing up their vans with masses of goods
