Cappadocia, Turkey





Hello!! We arrived in Cappadocia around 11:30. We found a cute little cave room. The sites are like none other. VEry beautiful. We went to an open air museum which was a christian settlement from the 11th and 12th century. The churches,rooms were carved into the mts. We went on a hike afterwards to see the pretty sites. We were resting on a rock when a huge snake about 3and a half to four feet long crawled by. YIKES!!!!!!! Jessea didn'tsee it (in jessea's words he couldn'tseeit because I was yelling and screaming and scaried it away) That was enough of our hike. We just had supper and are soon off to bed. WE woke up this morning at 5:30 to catch the bus here and we will be waking up even earlier in the morning. WE will be picked up at 5:15 to watch the sun rise in the hot air balloon!!!!!!! So excited. Talk soon. Loveyou all
Oh by the way the picture of me standing in front of a cave is our room we are staying in. very small but cute it is inside a fairy chimney.

Beautiful country. Funny story about the snake. I’m glad you scared it off. I hope there aren’t any hiding in your cute little cave house. Thanks to Lindsey for the photo enlargement tip. Can’t wait for your balloon ride story and pictures. Have fun and watch out for those snakes, Dad
