The Blue Mosque

After prayer time finished we went into the Blue Mosque. We had to cover our head (which I thought made the experience a little more interesting) and the daughters began telling me how they were not at all religious and they didn’t like that women had to cover their head. It was interesting hearing this—and then Mehmet said the same thing to me a few minutes later which was kind of funny.
