Goreme has to be one of the most bizarre looking places I have ever seen. When we arrived there I felt like we had stepped onto a movie set, or a backdrop for a new ride at Disneyland. I have attached a link here which explains a lot better than I ever could, how this crazy landscape was created.
Darren and I enjoyed sleeping in our ‘cave’ hotel and exploring the fairy chimneys. We had fun touring around the caves and making up stories about the various ‘interior design’ trends. I could have peed myself laughing. I also tried really hard to ride a camel here, but it just wasn’t in the cards. Goreme was one of my favourite places in Turkey. There really just isn’t anything like it.
I LOVE Turkish tea!

No way mom !! That is SO neat. I have to show you the pic I took of what I thought was his home. xo
Wow, what a interesting place!!! I can see how it would be a favorite place, so very cool. Amazing photos again Kim!
Oh my gosh – your third picture down is the carpet shop that our friend Mustafa guards at night as his job – for 200 turkish million a month! Unbeleiveable that you would choose that carpet shop to take a photo of!
Krista I thought of you and Ted while I was writing this! Knew you would like seeing images from one of your favourite places 🙂 xo Kim
