Capadoccia highlights

1. First ever hot air balloon ride over some really cool rock formations. These were caused by the eruptions of the nearby volcano. People lived in the caves in the rocks until the caves starting doing what caves do (caving in). There are also rocks that are called fairy chimneys. It was very neat watching the balloons get ready. When we landed we had some champagne. It seemed a little early at 7:30 am
2. Esbelli Evi : a cave hotel. This is my favourite hotel of all time. Our first room had a door to a cave with an escape tunnel. I told Brandon he was only allowed to hang out in there during the day and it went without saying that he wasn't allowed to scare me from there. The breakfast was amazing and it was so quiet!
3. Underground city! Super cool place where the Christians used to hide from their enemies. We both agreed that we would never be able to live there (especially after being semi lost and going in a circle twice) and that the enemy didn't have a chance. I'm not claustrophobic, but the longest tunnel (which involved some serious hunching) was way too long for me.
4. Ziggy's: awesome mezze and wine. This is where I liked an olive for the first time!
