Istanbul - Day 5

It's Saturday and time for another trip to the dentist. Kirsty had her teeth whitened and I had my crowns cemented in. Kirsty was first and I was worried that she might have another panic attack when they put the mouth guards things in with the bleach etc, but I kept checking on her to make sure was okay and she gave me the thumbs up each time bless her.


I had about another 6 injections while he removed my temporary crowns and cemented in my permanent ones. To be honest I wasn't actually sure why I needed all the injections because they didn't do any drilling or anything and even with the injections every time they sprayed the cold air thing on my teeth I almost hit the roof. Proper uncomfortable. After about an hour or so it was all finished and we could head back to the hotel.


We grabbed some lunch which was quite nice. We had a chicken sandwich each and some salad to go with it.

After lunch, Layla went for a full body massage at a place she found and said it was pretty good. I think she briefed her before she started so that she didn't get a repeat of Karmen/Eileen from the other day. Me & Kirsty went back to our rooms and had a nanna nap cos we had been up early the past few days for the dentist. Layla came back about 3 hours later as the massage was two hours plus traveling time. She said it was a good one and she even managed to nod off. That's what I want from a massage, I want to feel relaxed and like it's been an enjoyable experience not feel like I've had a bricklayer digging his elbows in my back for an hour.

Got myself ready and then we went for a stroll around the area onto the waterfront hoping to find a nice waterside restaurant to have dinner but it was just a concrete path all the way round so we ended up going to one of the small places near our hotel that we haven't been to yet. To be fair they are all pretty much "same same but different" so there isn't a lot between them.


Kirsty had a liver kebab (she will eat owt her lol) I had a pepperoni pizza and Layla had a veggie pizza without cheese.

This trip is a bit of an eat, sleep and repeat trip as the weather isn't great and we are tied a bit with dentist trips but it's all good as we have our proper holiday to Bali in Crete once we get home and Layla is off to Sardinia so we don't feel like it's wasted time.


After Dinner we all went back to our rooms. I watched 3 episodes of Big Brother Canada. I forgot that I could watch stuff on my laptop.
