Grand Bazaar part 2

12 February

Today our main focus is shopping.

Grand Bazaar is the setting.

once more.

"pashmina"

Today.

it's only for shopping.

So, not much to write.

Seriously, I don't know what to write.

"Amir with loads of T-shirt"

We went shopping from before noon till around 5pm.

Only to know that every seller in the bazaar have recognized us

because for every stand we visit,

we'll ask for the lowest price.

Well, if you don't have much money,

that's what you'll do.

Some still have loads of cash,

Some went withdrawing money from hsbc.

Some got empty pocket.(me)

So, you have to spend based on your wealthiness.

That night,

Some of us still went outside searching for any other stuff,

Some went to buy jersey,

Some went for dinner,

Some went out for caligraphy and came back late.

Oh yeah,

Supposedly,

Today is the date of our flight back to Egypt.

Although things have settled down a bit,

We're still going back to Malaysia.

peace!

Across the Bosphorus, through the spice Bazaar, Straight to Ottogar!

11 February.

So what did we do today guys?

The morning was a waste!

Everyone just laze around the bed.

Not waking up.

And it was like facebooking day,

As everyone opens their Opera Mini that day.

Except Kamil which have something wrong with his browser from which he refer to caused by "accidents during ski"

And Amir still findings ways to solve his currency problems.

We went breakfast this morning,

as it was been served by the hostel.

Then,

we went for Jumaat prayer at the Blue Mosque again.

Only this time we managed to pushed ourselves inside the crowd.

After the prayer,

We ate some 2TL Chicken Doner

which obviously will be our main sponsor for the rest of our remainder days here.

(because its cheap)

Then,

We went for a boat ride across the Bosphorus.

Where we visited both the Europe and Asian part of Turkey.

After 1 hour and half of boat ride,

We went to Spice Bazaar.

And yeah.

There were many spices.

Wawan was attracted to the coffee powder.

You should buy some then.

There were also some cheap Turkish Delights,

T-Shirt, and souvenirs.

Faiz, Kamil, and Nizam want to buy a leather jacket.

So, right after Maghrib,

We all went together to Ottogar,

Because the price there for all kind of jacket is really cheap.

So we all bought at least one thing there.

Including Amir who before this have an issues with his money.

But now,

he is as good as ever.

Carrefour Athens

This is a Special post as been asked by all.

We spend our last pocket money of Euro at Carrefour Athens.

A little trivia.

Kamil spend the least amount with 0.96 Euro.

Ammar-1.00Euro

Nizam-1.20 Euro

Afifi-4.something Euro

Wawan-6.++ Euro

Afiq-8.00 Euro

Faiz-9.00++ Euro

Amir-xterkira.

Shopping in Europe isn't like shopping in Malaysia.

The price is like 0.25, 0.75 something for each item

Ok thanks.

So expect a massive blog post over and over.
