Hello!!! Today was a great day I am going to tell you about it.... well we had to be on the coach at 9 so we got up at 7 then we travelled to the school to pick up the other students where we then headed to Topkapi Palace - I was amazed it was made with real gold leaves and marble it had the skull of John the baptist and also Moses' staff which (they say) he used to part the Red Sea- it was so wonderful and we then left a bit later to go to the Hagia Sophia- it took your breath away.... it was huge and it was also made of Gold leaves... after that we had lunch it was very nice,we had to be quick so we could get to the World famous Blue Mosque... it was big we had to take our shoes off because it was disrespectful to keep them on in the Mosque. We took loads of pictures and Mrs Underwood had to wear a skirt to cover her leggings! We then went down to an ancient underground water resevoir which had pillars and fish in the water....you could buy coffee and Mrs Underwood and Mr Spacey got dressed up in traditional gear and had their photos taken!. I made a wish at the pillar with the head of Medusa- I hope it comes true :)
Thanks for following....
