Nevşehir

Ons het vandag 'n baie rustige dag gehad. Die toere wat ons wou doen was vol bespreek en ons het toe besluit dat ons nog die volgende twee aande hier sal slaap, om te doen wat ons moet. Ons gaan more die Rooitoer doen, dan oormore lugballon ry en die Groentoer doen. Ons het perongeluk deur ons alarm geslaap, wat gestel was om na die lugballonne te gaan kyk en toe eers bietjie later wakker geword. More probeer ons weer! Na ons opgestaan en klaar gemaak het, het ons 'n rerige erige Turkse ontbyt by die hotel gekry. Dis ongelooflik! Hulle pak klompie kosse, smere en konfyte vir jou uit en jy hou dan jou feesmaal... So lekker! Na dit het ons gou Mall toe gegaan om 'n paar goedjies te kry en toe verder rondgery en alles gekyk. Die grotte en goed is merkwaardig en nie iets wat mens in woorde kan verduidelik nie! Al die mense hier is baie vriendelik en mens kan nogal goed regkom met prentjies en Google Translate wanneer mens niks verstaan nie! Almal hier dink ons is Russe vir een of ander rede. Die vroutjie by die Grot hotel is so oulik en help ons so mooi om alles te reël. Vandag se gebeure was nie eintlik enige iets baie interessant nie, so ek gaan nou maar net 'n paar goedjies vertel wat vir ons interessant is. Van die goed het ek al genoem, jammer as ek myself herhaal! Alles hier is vrek goedkoop. Ons het vanaand geëet vir R250. Dit het ingesluit twee vol borde kos, een sop met broodjies, 4 botteltjies water, 'n Coke en 'n sap (Ek het die fout gemaak om nie te weet wat ek bestel nie, en toe perongeluk Black Carrot root sap bestel, beveel dit GLAD NIE aan nie!). Dit was 'n plekkie in die mall gewees waar ons geëet het en dit wil vir my soos 'n kitskos plek vir hulle voorkom. Baie interessant vir ons was, as hulle klaar jou kos gegee het, kom hulle ook verby met ek is nie seker of dit vet of olie is wat kook nie, maar gooi dan sommer so hele blerts vir jou oor jou kos! Mens proe sommer die kolestrol, maar lekker bly lekker... Die Turke is vreeslik lief vir vleis, kaas en brood, wat ons natuurlik pas! Alkohol is baie baie duur hier. Almal kyk na die straat diere... Daar word oral vir hulle kossies, water en melk uitgesit. Dit is ook vir ons verbasend hoe rustig die honde is en dis GROOT brakke, nie die algemene Suid-Afrikaanse brak nie! Hulle blaf vir niks en niemand nie, loop maar net rond en slaap waar hulle wil. Ons het die oulikste baba woef vandag gesien, wat net so rustig was, waarvoor ons toe maar water gegee het! Hulle bestuur aan die regterkant van die pad en uiteraard is die stuurwiel ook aan die linkerkant. Ons loop daagliks na die verkeerde kant toe, lag en loop dan maar weer om na die regte kant toe. Dit maak mens nogal deurmekaar! Dis nie net die kos wat so goedkoop is nie, maar ook klere en elektrieseware. Dis amper 'n probleem dat alles so goedkoop is, want dan wil mens net koop, koop en KOOP! Baie van hulle paaie, veral in Istanbul is met blokkies klip gelê en raas vreeslik as mens 'n tas oor dit probeer sleep! Hulle selfoon sein/wifi is ook fantasties! Mens sukkel amper nêrens met dit nie... Behalwe in ons Grot, hier sukkel ons! Dis ook die rede vir die Pikkewyne wat eers 'n dag later gepost word, maar ek skryf hulle darm op die rerige dag. Goed, dit is dan nou al vir vandag!
Groete en liefde!♡

Today we had a very chilled day. All of the tours we wanted to book was fully booked and we then decided that we will spend the next two nights here as well, to do everything we want. We will be doing the Red tour tomorrow and then the Air balloon and Green tour the day after. We accidentally slept through our alarm to go and see the Air balloons this morning, so we will try again tomorrow morning! So we slept in and then had a real Turkish breakfast. It's AMAZING! They have all of these little foods, pastries, spreads and stuff that they pack out for you on your table and then you have your own little food festival. We quickly went to the Mall afterwards and then we drove around, doing some sightseeing. The caves and places are not something one can describe in words. It's incredible! Everyone here is super friendly and you can manage quite nicely with Google Translate and pictures when you don't understand each other. The lady at the cave hotel is also very nice and she's so helpful with all the bookings and arrangements. Seeing that our day wasn't that interesting, I decided that I will name a few things that's interesting to me... Everything is so cheap here. Tonight we had dinner for R250. This included the following: 1 Coke, 1 Very disturbingly bad juice (I didn't know what I ordered and turns out it was black carrot root juice, it was disgusting!), 1 Soup with bread, two full meals and 4 bottles of water. We ate in the mall and I think it's like a type of fast food place. When your food arrives, they also come around with boiling fat/oil (I'm not 100% sure what it is) and throw some over your food. You can taste the cholesterol, but it's still nice. The Turkish people loves meat, bread and cheese and that's obviously amazing to us... Alcohol is very very expensive here. Everyone looks after the stray cats and dogs. There's food, water and milk placed all over for them. The dogs are also super chilled. They don't bark at anyone and they just walk around and lay around where they want to. The stray dogs here are a lot bigger than the one's in we get in South Africa. We also saw the cutest puppy today and ended up giving it water. They drive on the right side of the road and of course that means that the steering wheel is situated on the left side. It's a daily thing for us to go to the wrong side of the car, laugh and then walk around to the right side. It's quite confusing! It's not only the food that's cheap, but also the clothes and electrical equipment. It's quite a problem, because with these prices, one just want to buy, buy and BUY! A lot of their roads, especially in Istanbul, are paved with small square rocks and it makes A LOT of noise trying to get your bag over it! They also have great network coverage. You don't struggle to signal anywhere, except for our cave that we live in at this stage. This is also the reason behind my late Penguins, eventhough I actually write them on the correct day. That will be all from our side for today...
