Path finding in Cappadocia

It was a beautiful day hiking in Cappadocia. The trails are not well marked but that only enhanced the adventure. We met a local farmer who was terrifically nice to us. He showed us his tomato plants, apricot and cherry trees, and vineyards. He ranted at another set of hikers - lost like us - but who had inadvertently trod on his tomato plants😡🍅🍇. Apparently we did not and so were blessed with fruits from the garden.

The landscape is surreal. We could spend many more days hiking here and not tire of the exploration. We felt like we were in an Indiana Jones movie - archeologist out exploring forgotten ruins and discovering ancient treasures.

Tesekkurler- pronounced sort of like Tea Sugar Ederim- said very fast.- means thank you. I’ve been practicing diligently but almost no Turk recognizes what I am trying to say😂. When they do finally understand me they are delighted and take a few minutes help me with the pronunciation. 💕Of course- Kai is better at saying Tesekkukler than me.
