Bosphorus cruise

Every visitor to Istanbul wants to—and should!—take a Bosphorus cruise on the 32 km (20-mile)-long strait which joins the Sea of Marmara to the south with the Black Sea to the north of IstanbulOne of the best ways to get a feel for Istanbul is to take a cruise on the legendary Bosphorus. Begin the tour with a brief visit to the 17th century Spice Bazaar, one of Istanbul's most colorful and bustling attractions. Then hop aboard your ferry for a cruise along the Bosphorus, the majestic strait that runs through Istanbul, linking Europe and Asia. From your cruise boat, you can view the dramatic sights lining the Bosphorus' wooded shores: mosques, a bridge that for a time was the world's longest, the massive Rumelihisar fortress, the 19th century mansions of the Ottoman elite and the Sultan's fanciful gingerbread palaces and hunting lodges.
We had a cruise milonga. The sea waves were rocking the cruise and the DJ played such awesome music that pretty much synced with it. It was magical. 
We danced and played gimmicks, posing for photo ops, breathing and inhaling the beauty of the places around us. It was a magical milonga.




































Towards the end, we were so tired that we both crashed. We just slept and slept in the end.
