Day 4 - Departing from Istanbul

So our time in Istanbul is done. We are in Attaturk International airport waiting for plane to Tibilisi at 13.10 (love the 24h clock). We watched the World Cup Final at a street cafe near our hotel in Lalali, the more upscale fashion district in Istanbul - though we found it funny that across from our hotel was a women's underwear store. Anyone watching the game knows how exciting and back forth the contest was. The Turks were decidedly pro-German but we found ourselves rooting for some Messi magic to happen. Not to be. 

The Caucuses are next as we approach the East.
