Cosmopolitan city of Istambul

Memories again - this time from Istanbul, trip I did early this summer.

My hotel was located on Asian side of Istanbul. I must give information that Istambul is cut on half by Bosphorus. Following wiki:

The shores of the strait are heavily populated as the city of Istanbul (with a metropolitan area in excess of 11 million inhabitants) straddles it.

There are only two bridges over Bosphorus. I know it as one of them was renovated that time. It made a lot of traffic jam in whole city with arround 5 mln cars. Nevertheless, due to traffic on streets, I had a grate oprtunity to use ferry to cross straight to european side of city. 

Ferries are well organised. It is cheap and fast way to move from one border to other. Moreover from water level Istanbul looks marvelous, especially during the night, with city lights.

It is one of the best cities I've visited. For sure place that I can recommend to go to. Even not knowing turkish language.

Source of Nile

Souvenirs of Uganda and Lake Victoria

My trip to Uganda was already in April, so it was some time before. Today I found lost memory card of my digital camera with pictures taken that time.

For small amount of money one can have 1 hour boat trip on Lake Victoria. Most of guides there, take a trip to small island on lake, close to real source of Nile.
I was asured that Nile is longest river in world. How it compares with recent news about new Amazon river source... ?


The Nile is usually said to be the longest river in the world, with a length of about 6,695 km,^[5] and the Amazon the second longest, with a length of at least 6,400 km.^[4] In recent decades debate has intensified over the true source and therefore the length of the Amazon River.^[2][7] Brazilian and Peruvian Studies in 2007 and 2008 added the waterway from the Amazon's southern outlet through tidal canals and the Pará estuary of the Tocantins and then concluded that the Amazon has a length of 6,992 km and was longer than the Nile, whose length was calculated as 6,853 km.^[3]However, as of 2010 the length of both rivers remains open to interpretation and continued debate.^[4]

Jet lag in Maputo

After more than 24h of travelling across Africa I reached my destination. Instead of my hometown, I'm spending next few days in Mozambique. To get here I visited airports in Dakar, Nairobi and Joburg.








Finally to overcome jet lag I tried local cerveja.
