greetings from anatolia

I’m in neveshir in central turkey. We arrived in ankara by train and then a 3 hr bus further. We’re staying with the uncle of a co-worker of a friend of a co-worker of my aunt heidi’s. Go figure, huh? they don’t speak much english but we’re doing our best and there is a neighbor 20 year old guy who’s english is pretty good. We saw some amazing 2000 year old caves here, where early christians fled from roman attacks. Probably more of that tomorrow. This region is full of them, which is why we and many other tourists come here. We saw a large group of japanese tourists at the caves today. The geograhy is like a bigger version of the central valley, only flatter and more spread out. It’s got scrub trees but not much else. We saw a little snow on the ground from the train – it’s noticeably colder here.
