Day 093 Kizören - Aksaray

Today the plain seemed even more plain than yesterdays plain which was already very plain. The headwind was also still there, but not as cold and nasty as yesterday. So, the ride was not particularly exciting but doable.
One plus factor was the Sultanhani caravanserai - the biggest caravanserai of Asia Minor, wow! It actually was really nice and provided a good reason for me to stop on the rather boring way (just as it did for centuries of caravans).
Another big plus factor was my couchsurfing host Cihan in Aksaray. After an already sumptuous dinner with him and his friend Deniz he gave me a deeper introduction to the secrets of a Turkish Pastanesi and we got some Sütlac (basically Milchreis, but much better), a bowl of something like chocolate pudding with some chocolate pieces hidden inside and sprinkled with more chocolate and pistachio baklava, hmmmmmm. Later I had my first try on Guitar Hero, yeah!
