More random Observations in Istanbul

Random things I noticed 

Sleep pods in the airport.  A nice idea if you want to connect in Istanbul and not leave the airport.

It is important to have your barber speak German, or perhaps it is a command that everyone should speak German.

I wonder if the street From Oz is from in Turkey.   I wonder  if this Dr Oz was a really famous Turkish doctor?  Did Dem Oz really give up his Turkish citizenship?

This closed, and looks like permanently, Chinese restaurant is on Dr Oz street.  It was such an odd location.  I didn't see many Chinese restaurants.  I went two weeks without eating Asian food.  That is a first in about thirty years.

Blast walls? Surge walls? At the cruise ship terminal I saw these walls that are connected to a lifting system from behind towards the cruise ship.  In the area without a ship in dock they are lying flat and people can walk on them.

The walls are lying down to the right in this photo. There is a very expensive shopping center at the cruise ship terminal.  The sign says that the passenger terminal is actually eight meters below under this walkways and shopping center.
