Where is the truck and driver
Flight left from Tel Aviv at 6 in the morning so decided it wasn't worth paying for a bed if I had to get up at 2 to check in for the flight by 3.

The underwater hockey ...
Karatepe, St Paul's Ghost & Across the Taurus
... on top. Murat said of this mountain:"often she hides her face". But not today. We skirted the mountain and found that it would be with us all the way to Kayseri. We saw her from three sides.
Goodbyes were being exchanged as we motored across the plateau. I was leaving the group in Kayseri; most were flying to Istanbul; some off on other adventures....
