Flying in a hot air balloon is lovely. Even better when you can get a close up view of Uchisar Castle in the morning sun.

Another glorious morning for hot air balloons in Cappadocia! Great views from Artemis Cave Suites terraces. I could even see the balloons from our room.
I definitely recommend spending at least 2-3 nights in Goreme to maximize your chances for taking a balloon flight and for watching them from the ground. Plus you can sleep in a Cave (but one that has lights, ac, running and water.)

It was a fantastic 🎈 flight this morning. The 0345 wake up gave me a great excuse for a nap. Not that I need an excuse!

It was worth the 0345 wake up for our 1 hour 37min hot air balloon flight!
Termessos part 3.
The baths or hammam. Not quite the luxurious spa experience any more, but very cool to explore.

The hike up from the ranger station is delightfully shaded (mostly) and has several places to stop and rest.
Gorgeous mountain views peek through the trees.
Termessos was supposedly founded by the Greek hero Bellerophon and most famously not conquered by Alexander the Great.
TIP: Even with the shade bring water and wear sunblock.

The ruins at Termessos are a delight hidden atop a 1000m high hill outside Antalya. A long winding switchback filled road leads you to the parking area and a helpful ranger led me to these tombs.
The tombs and sarcophagi have carved designs that have survived over 2400 years.
