Last night's bush camping was amazing!
We stopped at the monastery in Selime. Monks carved the monastery here in the 13th century.
My tent is on the far left. No fly, three quarters of a moon, clear sky, wow!
We drove a lot today and it's harvest time. They appear to straight cut everything-
The land changes so much. Here is a massive dry lake-
Try farming these rocks!
After awhile, we came across a fertile valley-
There are very few grain bins here but I guess this is how they do it-
This is typical Turkey - a mosque, bale hauling and a city all combined into one-
These men are lifting a window up to a top floor in this building, by hand-
We saw quite a few of these permanent/temporary settlements along the way-
We stopped at the monastery in Selime. Monks carved the monastery here in the 13th century.
This is the view from the monastery with a room on the left. You can see how high up it is because our truck is on the bottom left-
This is the church-
This is the cathedral-
with frescoes on the walls-
There are lots of fairy chimneys or hoodoos. People live in some of them-
People also live in the caves-
This woman was watering her garden-
Some women relaxing-
We were supposed to be bush camping again tonight but while some of us were in the monastery, Will made a deal with a local campground so we're set up right by a small stream and having trout for supper! Sweet!
