So I know that I'm a few days behind in the blogging department, but that's only because I finally went to Istanbul! What an insane experience!
I woke up early on the 24th and headed for the train station. I met up with Brian and we took the Amtrak down to Chicago, which was an extremely pleasureable journey I might add. There was so much leg room and there was even a footrest that I could use with no discomfort at all. The car was not crowded and the trip was uninterrupted. It was a blast and makes me think wish that train travel weren't so antiquated.
Anyhow, we arrived in Chicago and took the EL to the airport. Oh the wonders of mass transit...we'll see more of it in the coming week! We got on our plane and flew to Detroit, where we met Alex. Then it was finally off to Europe! The flight to Amsterdam was pretty uneventful, and when we landed it was Christmas!
