Turkey - From Istanbul s otogar (that s bus station to English speakers), I boarded an overnight coach, arriving in Cappadocia at the crack of dawn. in the town of G reme. People have been carving homes into the rocks of this surreal landscape for ages. And what did I do after a night on a bus without sleep, but go hiking for hours. I walked the Rose Valley to avusin, catching a dolmus back. The next day, I tramped the Pigeon Valley (devoid of pigeons) to the castle-like U hsar. A busy day next. A plunge into the depths of Derinkuyu, the underground city, which once housed thousands. Then a stroll through the Ilhara Gorge, with monasteries carved into the cliff sides. Finally, ascending the heights of Selime Monastery. Back to another otogar to depart as I arrived. On another overnight coach. The musical accompaniment is Menouthis by E. S. Posthumus and Pompeii also by E. S. Posthumus.

Excerpt from Peter, Bethany other songs, giving it a faster, dance-tinged vibe. It s an interesting retelling of the age-old Samson and Delilah story, bringing personal choice into the saga.
