Day 1: May 17, 2014
Greetings to you all from Istanbul, Turkey. My name is Granville and I'm your Explorica tour director. I'm Greek/English and have lived in Athens, Greece since 2003 when I came to work for the Athens Olympic Games, 2004. I arrived in Istanbul this afternoon, it's a huge city, population 16 million.... The whole pop of Greece is only 11 and a half.. So here's some pics of the hotel we're staying at as well as the skyline from this part of the city. I'm really looking forward to meeting Sherri's group and wish you all a safe and comfortable journey to this amazing city! Bye for now.
