It is amazing, I have to search my other computer, but should have a pile of pictures from there. If you ever get there, you have to visit the underground city, the valley of chapels, and break free of any guides and climb the inside of some of the buildings (There are some that are available for things like that, guides do try to rush you past them to places where they can sell you tourist tat though)

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

It will be my third epic wind/rain carved sandstone viewing. First was Mungo national park in Australia:

Then Lamayuru valley in Ladakh, India (this one much better in high res):

err, I just looked it up, it's not sandstone in Cappadocia. Not that it matters.

it's ash, but it sure does look like sandstone.

Oh there will be photos.

I need to get going on my India diary too, I haven't been in a mood to write it.
