Ballooning in Cappadocia

Our transport arrived at 4am and we were taken to the departure area where  the land rovers and trailers were parked up ready to board their passengers. Our pilot was Andrew a Kiwi  who I felt quite safe with. There were balloons lined up everywhere about 100 in total ready for take off. Many of the baskets held 24 people we just had 12 in ours and could manoeuvre very close to rocks etc. It was an amazing experience travelling through the canyons for just over 1hr. What a landing you hardly knew you had landed then I looked down and we had landed straight onto the trailer. Out came the bubbles to complete the experience. Then it was off back to our Cave for breakfast.

After a bit of a breather we wandered down to the shopping area to find a little treasure to bring home. Time for refreshments Then a walk back home.

Our early morning caught up with us so said goodbye to what was left of the afternoon.
