Istanbul
Theme：RINA

We've safely arrived in Istanbul, Turkey
It's currently the 27th before 7 pm
The weather's great

There are tons of cats throughout the city

This morning we all went to a cafe and ate breakfast

The elevator doors were manual (!)

It seems like bread, chai, and cheese are a standard Turkish breakfast
Honey is also a famous rarity☆

We were overlooking the Bosporus Strait that divides Turkey's Asia side with its Europe side.
All of the food is delicious and goes very well with Japanese palates◎

The climate is also similar to Japan's
It's almost a bit cold～

On the Europe side there are many tourist attractions with tall buildings and apartments with the same design, giving it a stylish atmosphere. If you go into an alley, there are general goods stores, lamp stores, and cute leather goods stores side by side; it's a lovely cityscape.

There are many animals and cars.

I kind of like taking pictures of shadows projecting on buildings or apartments

Jam-packed

The tallest building in the upper right is Galata Tower. I hear it was used as a prison a long time ago.
Now, it's been turned into a restaurant & viewing platform; a symbol of Galata district. I wanted to go up it!

Turkey is the birthplace of cymbals.
This time I'm using ones from the maker called "Istanbul"! They're really cool! A good sound!

A popular B-class gourmet for local college students
Kumpir, a baked potato that you eat after mixing in your favorite toppings on the spot. It was awesome.

"There are tons of cats throughout the city" Istanbul is a cat-city, in many areas the cats will let you pet them. There are also places where there are a lot of dogs.

"The elevator doors were manual (!)" Are there no manual door elevators in japan?

" I wanted to go up it!" There is usually a long queue, I did not go up there either as I didn't want to stand around for an hour.

I am happy they like the food.

I hope they can visit some historic spots such as the Aya Sofya, Topkapi Palace, Dolmabahce Palace etc. I am sure they would love to see those places but they are probably pretty limited in time and can only see a tiny fraction of what Istanbul offers.

Good luck to them on their performance tomorrow.
