Trip to Cappadocia

[M n M]

Thanks Buster for posting those wonderful pictures.
We have yet to sort ours out. Like everyone we have taken a lot.
It was a great trip,  things ran smoothly and we couldn''t have had a nicer group of people to travel with.
We managed to cram a lot into our three days there. The weather was great and with our driver''s knowledge of the area, it enabled us to visit some areas that we would have been unable to do had we gone by car. (eg The walks in Rose Valley and Ihlara Valley)
Our friends Audrey and Mike have asked us to thank everyone for being so friendly and making them so welcome. He will be remembered for his belly dancing antics.

Hi Pebble and Felicity

The photo’s I have taken of the Cappadocia hot air balloon ride can’t do justice to the magnificent scenery and as Felicity will know you have to be there to experience the sheer excitement of seeing all those balloons turn up in the half light of dawn and then slowly as one by one they are inflated; they rise up as the sun also rises above the surrounding mountain’s.

Absolutely magic!

Big thanks to:

Mnm for arranging the trip and the fantastic weather (Can we have a repeat of the weather for next weeks walk please)

Murate (I hope I have spelt that correctly) our fantastic chauffeur and guide his ability to ferry us effortlessly around Cappadocia and back to Kalkan without having to refer to a map amazed me.

And the entire crowd who went on the trip you helped increase our knowledge of Turkey and made us laugh in equal measure.
