A Cruise to Another World (Istanbul)

Jason and I decided it was time to venture further than we had ever been before! To the Black Sea we cried and hopped the next boat to get us there! Something incredible happens along the way though! Something unexpected and wonderful. As you cruise up the Bosphorus heading to the Sea, you are actually splitting two continents! Europe and Asia. Istanbul is the only city to do so. And as cheesy as we thought it would be, well, it wasn't! Its a very cool feeling!

The Fortress of Asia! Ancient guardian of continent Asia and her civilizations!

And on the other side of the boat? Yup! Fortress Europe. Apparently Europe has all the money for restoration (or at least did at some point in the history) because Fortress Europe is in remarkably better shape!
