We are so grateful that you became our friend and family in Istanbul during the first lockdown - we appreciate you and Elif and look forward to meeting up again soon .... Maybe a visit to Georgia? love to you both xx Marianne xx
We are currently preparing the subtitles, they should be done Sunday evening. Sorry for the delay xx Şu anda altyazıları hazırlıyoruz, Pazar akşamı yapılmalı. Gecikme için özür dilerim xx
Ersel, you have come to the rescue again for our dear Marianne and Chris.....thank you! Looks like everything is going as planned, have a good time in Georgia.
What a legend, Ersel!! Not only meeting you at the airport, but wearing your merch! Such a generous soul. Never have I seen such mahoosive potatoes! 🤯🤯 Those toppings looked choice. 🤤🤤 Might you visit your carpark home on your way back?
I visited Georgia twice and stunned by the splendor and beauty of nature and the goodness of its people, I always prayed that it would become an oasis of safety, peace, justice and democracy......
My heart skipped a beat when i saw you walking through istanbul airport. Fond memories, passing through there en route to Corfu. Incredibly efficient airport . Lovely😊 ladies feeding the cats. Sleep tite . 😴
Another nice vlog! BTW, Istanbul has 3 airports, namely Atatürk Airport; the new Istanbul Airport, which is one of the biggest in the world; as well as Sabiha Gökçen Airport located on the Asian side of the city. As you can guess easily, you landed and took off from Sabiha Gökçe AirPort.
Realy glad to see you guys now in your next country. I was only thinking on Friday last week when we hurd that Georgia was on the green list. One thing I ask Chris. How's your back after the off road trek in the manatgave mountains? Safe travels,🇹🇷❤️ looking forward to your next blogg
Ha Ha - yes his back is great - although picking up rocks is not great !! Yep we are driving to Georgia soon and loved our mini road trip for sure !! xx
Y’all put so much content in your show those potatoes were amazing! How is Corrana the (cat doing?) I don’t want,the to end! Looking forward to seeing you in a few days!
Ersel the legend 👍👍 ahh Piere Lotti - beautiful romantic place - been there great view however you should go up the Galata Tower - there’s also a restaurant up there. 👍👍👍 you got her back Chris 😁 for her joke that someone broke into Trudy - stay safe
Another great Video. Big changes in Istanbul Airport since we were last there. Oh! Dear poor Marianne, Chris that was NOT funny!!😀 I am sure you will be glad when you arrive back in Turkey … really is the best place in the World!!😀 Patricia 🏴🏴🏴
Safe & Happy travels in Georgia. I wasn't aware you could drive from the Asian side to the European side in Istanbul (Tunnel)? I Always thought it was a ferry!!☘🥰
There are two sub-sea tunnels, one for the cars, the other one is reserved for rail-/subway (=Marmaray). And, of course, there are three bridges connecting Europe and Asia for motor vehicles and pedestrians.
@@onentogar9599 Unfortunately the bridges are not open to pedestrians. Apparently there were far too many suicides when the Bosphorus Bridge was open to pedestrians.
@@DikWhite From today’s point of view you are right. I was referring to the original intended purpose as they were built. In fact, in the past the first bridge used to be a part of the Istanbul marathon’s route. According to that logic a large car crash would cause the closure of the subsea tunnel for the vehicle traffic..
Great to see you finally in Georgia! Be sure to eat some kachapuri and visit one of the hot sulfur baths (Tbilisi is named after it think!) Great content as always!!
11:00, Today, i ate a baked potato at this place, Marianne and Chris! I showed your video to this guy who prepared your baked potato. I told him about you and your videos on RU-vid. But, he did not remember you :D
Hi - we are super excited to have a quick visit and will be back there with Trudy soon - they are overboard - great for using with our tech as day bags 💐👍
karı koca ikinizde çok şeker ve komik insanlarsınız..yurdumuzda bulunduğunuz sürece dua ediyorum size olumsuz bir durumla karşılaşmayasınız diye..iyi günler.
When you took that ride up the Bosphorus , do you remember seeing that big castle near the 2nd bridge , Rumeli Hisar ? We lived up the hill behind that castle, where my dad taught English at Robert College. This would have been back during the late 1960s.
Well that was a fun watch. I miss the Bul although in no hurry to go there just yet. Ersel is cute :) and then onto Tbilisi my favourite city. Lucky you. Intrigued to know why you needed a PCR test as I understand it if you are fully vaccinated and have a cert to show you don't need PCR test. Happy travels
I'm sure the weather is more bearable there in Georgia now. Here it's very hot, we're done ...🥵 In July it's gonna be boiling hot in Antalya. Already it is. 🔥🥵🔥
Hello again! Maybe I have missed it, but if not, it would be nice if you could tell the prices for your flights. Going places by bus is really cheap in turkey so flying might be affordable too. Go slow and have a real good time!
Hi we will be taking Trudy very soon - but as we had to get a stamp in our passport to restart our driving licence 6 month allowance - and we have been so busy working with the Turtle centre that we have had to stay in the southern coast of Turkey and taking Trudy for a 20 + hour drive and missing out on so much was not a thing for us - so we flew and then we will fly back and drive Trudy - woo hoo
I wish we could be in Georgia to meet you, but we are still in Antalya, Turkey. How long will you be in Georgia? We won't be back there until August. Hope you have a great time. Georgia is now home for us. Let us know if you need anything. We know people! By the way, I loved seeing Istanbul. It looks really nice. We hope to visit there next time. xx
Hi - no .... sorry I didn't update FB only instagram - there is a group of marine biologists that check the nests and if they consider the nest to not be more than 15-30% viable they take the sticks down .... and leave them on the floor 😳 for Seher to pick up ... but they are going to start working more as a team and come up with a better plan so it does not look like they have been vandalised !! Thank you so much for caring xx M
Hi Linda - as it is open and we needed to get a new entry stamp to restart our 6 month driving allowance on a foreign licence - we thought we would fly to Georgia as we are planning on driving there in the next few weeks - but it is so far we flew !! M xx
Hi Paul - we will be - this visit is / was to get a re entry stamp in our passport to restart the 6 month allowance for our UK driving licence in Turkey - we will be heading there with Trudy soon 🙌
My dad would of been the same as Chris winding people up over the covid results Loved the video of Istanbul. Completely different to how I imagined the city to be. Expected it to be more Arabian in style because that's kind of the impression I have got from geography books growing up
I am sorry you have got offended that was not my intention however I am trying to explain how misconceptions can be proven wrong with a bit of education.
@@unhappyblackmetal There's a general misconception here in Turkey that it always rains in Britain and that we insist the sun will never set on the British Empire. Just saying.
