Cappadocia for Spring Break

It is no secret, I love Cappadoccia. There is something magical about this place. The scenery is simply amazing and the fact that the various civilizations actually lived in these caves, fairy chimneys, etc... is hard to conceive. This is the area where there are hundreds of underground cities. Early civilizations lived and the first Christians hid out and lived for years while they were being persecuted. The whole area is simply captivating. Each time we come we actually sleep in a cave and the girls love it. We also let the girls make pottery and inevitably end up buying a Turkish rug at one of the many carpet shops. This Spring Break we ventured out with our friends, the Hansons. We had fun visiting the sites together and seeing their first impressions of Cappadocia. Here is a short video of the kids in a carpet shop. The owner bought us all lunch and brought the kids baklava and Turkish tea. Also here is a short clip of Addie and Kaely hiding behind carpets. Addie thought she was so funny!
