Dad frog hopping through the tunnels Probably the coolest thing about Derinkuyu - an ancient underground city dug over several hundred years to house hiding Christians - is it was the first visit to anything that Dad wanted to leave before anyone else. Probably because most of the tunnels were a pretty tight fit and involved crawling, stooping, scrunching, limboing, or in other ways being small - one thing Dad isnt very good at. It was a blast exploring the city though and running amok in the rabbits warren of tunnels.
Alex right after he turned on our underground city theme music - the Star Wars soundtrack
At the very bottom of Derinkuyu - 7 stories down and very cozy. We ran into some Spaniards near here and then passed them on the road back to Ürgüp, so we gave them a ride to Göreme. 
Hakan pokes his head through a hole in the ceiling/floor. We are all on our knees to take this picture - the people who carved this place didnt really believe in headroom.
