In the lounge at Lisbon AirportLooks like P disapproves of something that I'm doing! Well, we left Istanbul somewhat reluctantly early this morning. We both enjoyed it immensely and were beginning to learn our way around the city. 

We're currently in the lounge at Lisbon airport, whiling away the 4.5 hours between flights. One of the "features" of this round-the-world award ticket (as we've come to realize) is that you don't get the best routing between your stops. For example, Turkish Airlines no doubt flies direct Beijing to Istanbul, but our routing took us via Seoul, with a few hours layover. Still, it beats paying for the tickets!!

We promise that we're working hard on the photos and should get the rest of the China ones up soon.

Thanks to all of you for following our blog,
