Malakya
Yesterday evening I arrived in Malakya. Malakya ıs the aprıcot cıty of Turkey. Today there will be a apricot festival Malakya.
Yestedays bus ride was only 7 hours. We drove trough barren land wıth some beautıfull gorges. The land gets more hilly with some moutains. The houses are gettıng poorer now I'm more ın the east of Turkey. In the bus I met Achmet and Apsin they were goıng to Malakya to see Apsın futher wıve. Apsın has never seen his future wıve but from the storıes she must be great. To meet thıs girl he ıs travelling with hıs oldest brother and his mother.
When I got off the bus ın Malakya I met Elisabeth she is a archaelogist. Last night I slept ın Park Otel right ın the middle of Malakya (800000 people). The hotel ıs oke it ıs clean.
This afternoon I saw a movie called Mr and Mrs Smit. The movie was in English.
I saw this movie together with a german and an Australian, later on I will ask his name. The cinema was great with Air condition. After a while you start to aprıciate the cool aır. It is here around 35 degree ın the shade.
So tonight I will go to the apricot festıval and tomorrow I go to Nemrut Dagi.
Nemrut Dagi is the highest mountain in the region. The site holds relics datıng back to 162 BC and 72 AD (accordıng to Lets Go my hopeless guidebook)On top on the mountain I will see some strange 10 meter high statues.
To get there will take a tour from Malatya. Other routes are quite difficult or wıll take to much tıme.
After Nemrut dagi I go to Şanlurfa. It ıs said that in this place Abraham was born and that thıs was the home of the prophet Job (* Let Go)It ıs also one the hottest places ın Turkey.

Prachtige rotsen Meinoud. Is Turkije een beetje te betalen voor een arme sloeber....In Dharamkot ga ik inderdaad les geven, 5 dagen shivananda yoga en zen meditatie. Vipassana stijl, met behulp van gesproken instructie op cd. Zen is fantastische, vipassana mis ik helemaal niet. Groetjes
He Romario, opa, man met een missie,
Alles goed? We missen je een beetje. Ben benieuwd naar de vrouwen en Iran, of wellicht een combi daarvan.
Vrijdagavond naar De Dijk geweest in de HMH. Geweldige show, fantastische sfeer en ze hebben alle toppers gespeeld. En het geluid, das echt top daar!
HE RIJNEN,
Het ziet er goed uit allemaal. over u2, het geluid ging wel ok. vond ik. maar dat zal jou een rotzorg zijn in turkije.
Reis ze, en geniet van het mooie weer. het is hier triest.
poeder
Hé Meinoud,
alles nog goed met je?
We zouden gisteren naar de parade gaan, maar het weer was zo dramatisch dat we maar uit eten zijn gegaan (tijdens het eten ging de zon natuurlijk heerlijk schijnen...) Ben net als iedereen op deze site naar U2 geweest, was erg geslaagd. Nog een beetje leuke muziek waar jij nu bent?
groet Milan
