We leave Goreme to make our way to Nemrut Dagi via a bush camp. We stopped at a small town for shopping, where a tyre was found to have been damaged.Fortunately it was spotted by two tyre technicians, who offered to repair it there and then for a very cheap price, the rest of us hit the town.It was the first time we noticed a change in the people, women were mostly covered up and the girls from the truck were watched, in fact all of us were! However the locals were friendly and all wanted us to make purchases in their shops, naturally. The hardware man could not believe his luck as nearly everybody bought nails from him as tent pegs and tarps for groundsheets as the ground was expected to become harder! We moved on after the repair was completed.We have also noticed a deterioration in the roads, as the ride has become a tad bouncy!
At the bush camp one of our group went for a walk and bumped into the land owner, carrying a shotgun, a moment of panic on his part turned into a training session for him! He later came round and to say hello and gave out flowers to the oldest in the group because he liked his beard.
