Kappadokya means Land of Wild Horses. Maybe that explains why horses were on the tissue box? :)

Enjoying your report, Adu.

This is just so swell.

jubilada Oct 17th, 2010 05:13 PM

Wonderful.Thank you, Adu.

Elainee Oct 17th, 2010 06:30 PM

We all want to travel with you. Well, your reports are second best. Have to be grateful for what we can get.

Aduchamp1 Oct 17th, 2010 09:30 PM

Thank you all.

Thank you Ellen for the explanation of horses and tissues. I hope this does not become a trend in places like the Grand Tetons.

Adu, definitely improved. Caves sometimes inspire people.
The cave muse must have hit you.

I will pay you back for commenting on my assos report but beware my reaction to your ignoring my more recent Kekova report.

Where did Andrea pick her Turkish? She has not even had a chance to meet the Sultanahmet tauts yet.

Also thanks for info on Stu's book. Will check it. When will you mention mine?

Just a note: My older daughter (30 and unmarried) who studied architecture at Virginia Tech is also looking for new parents in New York. (her name means 'joy' in English)

I had no idea that you were so funny....I am relishing this report...I was in Cappadocia during my college years which were a very long time ago and this brings back great memories.

I think Adu's wife is writing this while Adu is outside telling everyone he likes New York city better.

looking forward to the rest of the report!!

y'see, Ad, I keep telling you to stay away from that lounge crowd. Here, where we don't know any better, you are appreciated and applauded. Keep up the noble attempt at writing of your news and views.

By the way, I'm not sure I suggested that in Urgup, a short downhill walk from Suha's cave, there is a very good resto in the heart of town...good food and entertainment..terrace..<b>Somine Cafe & Restaurant<b/>. Also, while strolling Urgup, keep an eye out for a small store specializing in "Turkish delight" (candy, Adu!..don't let your mind wander to anything more exotic)

Stu (love to the beautiful lady you brung along!)

I didn't think I had the slightest interest in Turkey, but I'm greatly enjoying this trip report, Aduchamp. I just love the satire - such a relief from the usual dull TR's.

otherchelebi Oct 18th, 2010 07:53 AM

Her name is "joyance". like Beyonce, but she does not sing. "Bey" on the other hand, is a masculine honorary title, used usually for a socially and economically high level person. So you should call your new friend "Suha Bey".
How Beyonce fits into this, i do not know.

kerouac Oct 18th, 2010 09:17 AM

Excellent report. People need to get off the beaten track more.

taconictraveler Oct 18th, 2010 11:38 AM

Adu: I expect to see you and your camp followers (read Fodorites) on Saturday Night Live soon, I hope. -- so I can laugh out Loud some more. Please keep it up. This is the new Adu to me.

Hazel..now you've gone and done it...encouraging Aduchamp can be terminal. You ain't seen nuthin' yet!

I hear about the jazzy night at Esbelli and was too tired to go there, where Esin sing while guests played piano....what a miss! I think there was a classical concert a night ago or so. I loved the Salman part but I wont say this to Suha :-) he is a character of his own and he does really proud with his work and he deserves the fame he created....
Keep coming Adu.....
