Ain't no mountain high enough

Today it is up into the mountains of eastern Turkey but before that, we did need to just rinse the bikes off yesterday afternoon,after the days of travelling on construction roads.
Bike looks still dirty with so many dead bodies all over it.
Forecast is for rain, so we do not need this dust setting like concrete and causing problems when the temperature raises up again in the 'stans
Good start to the day as the sun was shining and in contradiction to the weather forecast. Lovely twisty roads as we start to climb and passing over peeks and mountain passes over 2000m.The only traffic we do come across is tractors but in the whole morning we saw three. Backwards and forwards the road twists and we, the Gadget guys, have decided to take it slow today to take in all the views and be last at the next destination
Passing over the mountain ranges around Mount Erciyes Dagi (3916 high). If you look closely you will see a plane above the clouds. Our final destination is quite unique and is called Kangal Fish Springs Hotel. The hot springs are full of minerals but also fish that will nibble gently over your skin and is a remedy for skin conditions. so we all arrive at eh hotel after a long day in the saddle again and we all met in the reception for our own private pool visit.
Ooh lovely warm water and just sink and rest your weary bones.
"Jesus" that was something that just touched my foot. Remain still and very quickly the are fish around your feet of various sizes.Now i have tickle feet and i have to concentrate on not letting the sensation jerk my feet. bigger fish arrive and they almost seem to be head butting my feet especially around the heals where the harder skin is. The little fish are like little hoovers along your skin which i presume is removing dead skin cells
Once you get use to it it is really relaxing and we just could not all stop laughing especially Adam the cameraman, who put a polarised lens on to see throught the surface of the water.
Rain did eventually come but only light so waterproofs have had an outing and will probably get some more use tomorrow.
We will be at some cabins in the mountains tomorrow where i will most likely not be able to update you all, but we will see
