Battle of the Muezzin

I took a quick trip to Istanbul this past weekend, leaving Mom and Daffy the Dog at home bonding with each other.  On my way back to the hotel, I stopped in the square in between the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque to listen to the Muezzins for the two mosques battle it out for best "Call to Prayer".  




(note: the Muezzin in Turkey do the Call to Prayer in Arabic, resulting in a rather cute "Akbear" instead of "Akbar")
