Honeymoon madness

The fligh to Istanbul was too early. I mean seriously what madman decided anything should happen at 7am on a monday morning? Seriously though the first flight was great, especially the food. It was cooked for a start. And there were choices. The layover was just a tad to long (see 13 hours). Fortunatley the second flight was much shorter.





The first day was spent mostly sleeping with a short break for dinner before more sleeping. Day two was pretty relaxed but we had to go to bed early so we could be up for our baloon flight at 4:40 in the morninig. Typically the flight was then cancled due to bad weather. We went to the open air museum instead. That was pretty cool but I'm not entirely sure how many churches one place needs.



On the fourth day we went on a historical tour around the local area and then on a 45min hike over some hills and through a valley. It rained during the hike and during a tour trough a cave complex but it was otherwise sunny. We had lunch in a mountain. Seriously, IN a mountain. The food here is awesome, except for the bread, cause I can't eat it.



Day five. We went on a real hike, through the rose valley (didn't notice any roses though). It was great. Two hours of scrambleing over, and under, rocks. We lost some of the group because they couldn't keep up :) . Lunch was had by a river, food was great, stupid bread.



Day six. Finally went Balloning today. I highly recomend the experience to anyone not absolutley terrified of heights. We flew into a tree. Then we went shopping... not much to say there really. We did find a silver smiths that makes jewlery based on designs you supply, and he does it over night.

Day seven. More shopping. Also a great deal of being lazy.

Day eight. We shall rise at 4:15 (and I thought coming here was bad). Not much else to say as I'm pre-empting this day in the post.
