hari terakhir kami di istanbul…
selesai urusan packing barang, kami ada satu lg misi yg belum tercapai iaitu mencari baklava, turkish delights dan turkish apple tea utk dibawa pulang sbg ole2!
settle brekfas, kami berjalan ke arah sultanahmet tram area, kat deretan kedai ni ada byk kedai baklava, mmg terbaek!
mula2 ingat nak beli yg fresh tapi bila fikir praktikaliti ie mana nak sumbat dalam luggage, nnt penyek etc so we settled with the readily packed ones.tapi siyes la tak sesedap dan sejuicy yg fresh tskk..!
went back to our hotel, sumbat2 barang dlm beg then waited for our ride to the airport.checked out almost 12noon and to the airport we went!
sampai airport, kami tinggalkan luggage kat left luggage sbb flite ke ashgabat adalah pada 12.30midnight ok
bawak brg2 yg patut & stroller then off we went to kill our time at…
Forum Istanbul
they claimed the mall as the largest in europe.tapi memang besar pun.sesuai sgt nak hbskan masa sementara tunggu flight balik he he.this mall is located nearby to Kocatepe metro station.mcm midvalley dgn komuter, dkt sgt.
amik je metro dr airport, tak sampai stgh jam sampai la mall ni, dekat dan convenient gila…
sebelah mall ni ada ikea.kira dah sebulan tak pegi real mall so mcm jakun kejap haha…
pelik tak pelik ikea istanbul ni sgt kemas sbb tak ramai org!kan kalau kat mesia kan habis sepah2 kerusi la cadar la mainan budak2 kan.tapi kat sini barang tak terusik lansung.nak kata baru bukak, ktorg pi masa tu dah time lunch kot.cafe dia pun lengang…so we had a comfortable lunch over there.btw meatballs&gravy dia tak sesedap kt mesia.menu2 lain byk disesuaikan dgn selera org2 istanbul ie kofte, rice, salad etc.ikea kita mmg jauh lg variety dan sedap huhu…
you can find almost all branded shops here at forum.ada foodcourt besar gila kat top floor so takyah risau nak makan katne.
geng2 malaysian dtg sini sebab nak shopping baju budak2.ground floor tu memang khusus kedai kanak2 babies je!rambang mata sgt!dah la tgh sale.tp sbb kitorg dah siap pack dan beg semua memang to the brim, so window shopping je lah…
sini jugak ada musolla/surau, babyroom yg best, toilet yg bersih…selesa sgt…
nursing room everywhere…best!
sebelum balik ke airport, kitorg jalan2 dalam Real market, mcm Tesco la lebih kurang..beli mineral water & brussels sprout(only TL2/kg!)
dalam kul 8pm gitu kitorg patah balik ke Attaturk airport…
checked in(byk drama malas nak cite, plus ‘aaqil nangis the whole time), had our late dinner at the airport foodcourt(mahal nakmamp) & boarding the plane(drama dgn ‘aaqil yg cranky lain macam & makcikpakcik sanggul sgt stress), finally!
‘aaqil slept the whole journey alhamdulillah.touched down at 7.30am(waktu ashgabat), safely arrived home at 9am camtu…
pastu kami 3 beranak bantai tido sampai kul 3pm haha
walaupun penat tapi sgt seronok!suami asik ckp jgn serik tau…sbb masa kat airport nak balik tu mmg macam2 jadi dan husben risau sgt kat me&’aaqil sampai husben takut aku serik xnak travel dah…
truth to be told, i enjoyed every second of the trip tak kisahla manis atau pahit.kalau travelling takde drama mmg tak sah!after all that what makes every vacay unique in its own way(dont get me started with our family trip to singapore last nov!haha!)…
hope you find my entries beneficial.go visit istanbul! 🙂
