How's your holiday going? Hope you are enjoying it!

I went to Turkey with mom last month. There is 7 hours' time difference between Turkey and Japan, but I didn't suffer from jet lag! I went aboard a hot-air balloon in Cappadocia that is one of the world heritages. The flight was truly out of this world!!!!

A man in the know told me that Hayao Miyazaki was deeply touched by the view of Cappadocia, and he made a movie 「ハウルの動く城」. There were many things I didn't know! I should have studied about Turkey in advance... Anyway, I really enjoyed the trip:)
