Here we are ýn the crazy land of Turkey.
Agaýn ýts the land of sales and we have been to see carpets and pottery. They gýve you free beer whýlst the ýs the demonstratýon. Thýs seems like a free deal until you feel a little tidly and suddenly have your eye on a seven hundred pound carpet whých would look great in mums livýng room..... Luckliy I escaped wýth my credit card intact. (Sorry Mum lucked out....). We had a great day yesterday, half the group went Hot aýr Baloonýng (But we were too tight as it was 100 quid - sorry paul!) After that they came back and we went to the amazing underground city of cappadocia (One of many) The caves are 1000 years old and 2000 people used to hýde from the arabs at one time, There are many rooms and storage and they used to make wýne ýn there. It goes 8 storýes down, we went down only 5 but ýt was amazing that they used to live there - Truely one of the hýghlýghts of the tour. We went and saw all the vallys were people have carves houses out of the rock. We are staying in one at the moment (Flinstones). A cave with central heating!
It has been snowýng and we are not prepared for that at all but have stocked up on cheap clothes. At the moment Narelle is nursýng a hangover and feeling sorry for herself. We went to a all you can eat and drýnk turkish dance show last night. Needless to say we got our moneys worth....... We all got up and danced and they led us outsýde and danced around a fire , then we did a marragge dance or somthýng and I had to get up and make an ass of my self (And was rejected!!) It was a great night but of course there had to be tears by some of the girls in the group butit makes for more exciting týmes.....
Well must get going. We have taken about 500 pictures but the nets too slow to put them on. I will do some more when its fast and cheap. Take care More thumbnails ...
