Hi all - I am back to limited internet access so I will have to make this short! Budapest was a lovely city and it was great to have the opportunity to explore the city and beyond. On the Saturday they took me for a drive where we visited a really interesting museum beautiful towns and I even saw the border of Slovakia! It was very sad to leave...
I arrived in Turkey on Sunday and loved it. In the interests of public record - Andrew you were right - I love Turkey. We are in a town called Goreme at the moment which is in Cappadoccia. This is where all the caves are (photos will be coming) and we have been able to do some exploring. Turkey is incredibly friendly. When I arrived I was supposed to be met by the tour which didn't happen. This didn't matter because someone came up and offered to help me and before I knew it I was in this comfortable shuttle bus heading to my hotel! Even when you haggle the people are friendly. It is not hard to enjoy it when they are telling you that you are beautiful! I have bought some great things including a rug which I don't have the room for. I am also developing a taste for Turkish coffee (when in Rome...) and the food is great. I got a bit of a tummy bug but it was the day we went to a magnificent vegetarian restaurant so I just ignored it and it was worth the pain. The food was amazing. I have so much more to tell about Turkey and photos to publish so stay tuned...

Hi Kimbo, I think you could maskerade as part Turkish - especially if your fervor for their coffee is maintained. I want to join you for a strong cup under a tree overlooking some azure blue ocean, and watch fishermen. in the meantime I've bought new slippers - fuzzy lime with leopard spots. You're the only one who could truely appreciate them the way I do. Miss you, bless you, lots o love
Anne
