Istanbul, Not Constantinople

My most favorite blog while we prepared for our trip was a family from LA who are in the movie business, and took the year before us to travel round the world. Besides being incredibly generous with advice (I emailed them a lot), they produced phenomenally wonderful, inspiring short films in almost every location that our entire family watched and adored.  My kids actually talk about their kids like they know them (note: their kids have no idea who my kids are, but mine don't know that!) :)

So while we are certainly no Flackett-Levins, here is our video homage to Istanbul, one of our favorite cities so far!

BTW, if you want to see their blog, check out www.ayeartothink.com, although it will make you think much less of my blog, but I'm okay with that.  Some of our favorites:  Look at That Monkey Jump in Thailand (we actually watched this before we went to Thailand in 2012 and then did the same tours), Ezzy and Cleveland Return to Venice, and the one we reference frequently: The Optimistic Eye.
