More eventful then it'll sound in the retelling - a late morning, topkapi palace for real this morning. glamourous palaces, it's been compared to versailles but i think that's way too much of an exaggeration - they weren't that nice.... interested glob of buildings placed very randomly - wierd to be in an official place without an organizing plan. galleries of the royal treasure, glittery pox of jewels on unneccessary objects... a watch-handled knife, how convenient when you're stabbing someone... pottery, gardens, decorated domes, etc. cool, not breathtaking. the dome behind ataturk in the picture was from topkapi palace.... the grey skies really got to me and i didn't take all that many pictures... ones with sun are always preferable, so this pic is from sunday morning.
