Günaydın From Cappadocia

Sunrise in Cappadocia, Turkey
This morning, I set my alarm for 6 a.m. so I could dozens of brightly colored hot air balloons fill the sky.

It's truly an amazing sight to see as they lift off over the valley. I can only imagine what it's like to see the area's unique rock formations from a bird's eye view.

For now, I am content to admire the scene with my feet firmly planted on the ground and take pictures. I took this last photo of a few remaining balloons with my phone. (More photos to follow in the near future.)
