How to reach Istanbul?

After exploring the island of Aegina (Αίγινα) (find out the article here) and returning by ferry to Piraeus to take the train “From Athens to Kalambaka with Hellenic Train” (find out the article here), I reached Kalambaka (Καλαμπάκα) (find out the article here), the closest city to support the visit of the Meteora Monasteries (find out the article here). Subsequently I moved “From Kalambaka to Heraklion by bus and ferry” (find out the article here) to reach the island of Crete, more precisely, Heraklion (find out the article here) where I started the Costa Venezia cruise in Heraklion (find out the article here).

Attack in Taksim Square: a day in Istanbul to remember forever…

That morning of the ship’s arrival at Galataport I went on one of the scheduled excursions which included visiting the city from both the European and Asian sides.
But it is also the same day that the attack occurred in the Taksim square area and, with the excursion group, we had passed there an hour or so before!

The journey continues…

The next stop on the trip was “Costa Venezia (again) in Bodrum” (find out the article here).
