So we had a quick stop in Instanbul which gave us our first taste of Turkey.

After arranging all of our onward journey plans we took to the streets of Turkey and explored a few of the sites inlcuding the grand bazar and the blue mosque. The sun was out and finally I had a chance to work on my tan.

That night we were off to the bus station to head to Goreme in Cappadocia.

I got chatting to a Turkish guy next to me and even though he didn’t speak a word of English he looked after us for all the trip and got us extra cakes and cups of tea.

After 11 hours on the bus we made it to Cappadocia and the wonderful landscape.
