How safe? [View all]

We, my 75 year old husband and I (73) are scheduled to fly to Istanbul in 10 days. We are supposed to spend 2 days in Istanbul and then join a cruise. I'm not worried about the cruise , although the eastern Med is looking crowded with war ships.

Seriously, should I be worried. State Department has issued Level 2 alert, doesn't seem too serious.
