Wilmaa. Cave life day 1
Arrived in the Ilhara valley after a series of trains busses and minibusses from Izmir via Ankara - again!. The gorge is a 16km velley that the guidebook (Thanks MJ) describes as "as beautiful place as one might conceive". After being chased down the valley by the ticket inspector we decided to get our moneys worth and immediatly set to work finding the perfect cave home.
Cave #1 had a seperate bedroom with a large living area and an ideal fire pit which we had soon transformed into a raging inferno. Cave #1 was sadly lacking in a chimney and while smiking ourselves to the very brink of death we decided that the next day we would have to find a better home.
That night Zim slept in the warmth and luxury of his sleeping bag - he even wore pyjamas - while a fully clothed Chris lay huddled in a ball on the floor with not so much as a cotton sheet to protect him. Tomorrow must get blanket!
