Day 97 Tuesday 22/12/09

We woke for our planned early start only to find the same back tyre on the Land Rover flat. After pumping some more air into it we headed back into Latakia to find a repair shop and wait for it to open. By 9:30 the tyre was repaired and we were heading for Turkey. The border was only 50km north and we were soon there.


After 2 hours we were in Turkey having spent £30.00 on two visas and 5 TL on something for the car (road tax?). Rather than blast across Turkey to Bulgaria, we decided to see a little of the country. First stop was Derinkuyu in the Cappadocia Mountains. Arriving in the dark we filled up with fuel (185 TL about £80!!!!!) and asked if we could park up for the night there. We got the permission and set up camp for the night.
