Istanbul - day 3
Today we continue our convention seminars. We have a late wake up call and meet for breakfast before heading off to our first seminar of the morning.
Augie, Jerry and Brian went to the military history museum for a few hours. The museum is next to the convention center, and has a huge collection of black powder canons, swords, armor, and paintings. Many of the artifacts have links to major historical figures, including Atilla the Hun.
We spend another hour with the vendors in the exhibit hall, attend another seminar, and head back to our hotel for a little rest before the evening’s closing ceremonies.
At 6:00 pm we meet again to take cabs to the Conrad Hotel for the NACTA function at one of the smaller cisterns in the city. Then their buses carry us to the Four Seasons on the Bosphorus for the final event sponsored by the Puerto Rico Tourism Company, who is hosting next year’s ASTA event. The food and the music tonight was Puerto Rican.
