Cappadocia

I’ve uploaded the best pictures of Cappadocia.  As many of you know, Cappadocia is in the middle of Turkey.  Cappadocia was the first place we visited in Turkey.  The people we met in Cappadocia were above nice.  They went far out of their way to help us.  If you get invited to someone’s   house, that means they trust you.  It was an honor for us when we were invited to the Özer’s house for dinner.  The Özers are a nice family that we met in Turkey, they are good friends of our host, Barbara.  Now they are friends of ours.  In the pictures we have crazy Ali, Kamile Özer and her family and friends and Momut.  All of those people helped us a terrific amount. 

 

The women do every thing in Cappadocia, from making the beds to making the fire.  In Cappadocia we lived a traditional Turkish life, but our dad made the fire.  Usually Abby and I did the dishes.  

 

There are so many things to do in Cappadocia.  One time we went to a place called Avano.  In Avano we got to do pottery.  That was very fun.  In other you can explore the underground city, tour the castles, clime into the fairy chimney, and stay in the cave dwellings.  In Cappadocia we spent a lot of time going to ruins, motorcycling, and most of all cooking.  Cooking dinner was the hardest because it was our biggest meal.  We didn’t have a microwave so even leftovers we hard to make.  Right after dinner we would be very tired because dinner was so hard to make.
