pictures from Italy and Turkey

Hi Boys and Girls - I am now in Turkey. I was here for Thanksgiving but they didn't have any turkey to eat :( No turkey in Turkey!
Before I was here I was in Italy. People say that Italy looks like a boot. Look on your map. Do you think so?
Here is a picture of Mt. Vesuvius. It erupted 2000 years ago. All the ash covered this town called Pompei. Now people come to see it.
Here is Scaredy Squirrel in Pompei. I wonder if he knows that Mt Vesuvius is nearby!
I stay at hostels for backpackers every night. Here is my room in Switzerland. My pack is on my bed. At these hostels there is a kitchen to cook in. There are people from all over the world.
The two pictures below are in Turkey. I LOVE Turkey! I went in a hot air balloon like the one in the picture. Behind it are lots of caves. I am sleeping in one tonight!
Do you see Scaredy hiding in this Turkish man's jacket?
I hope you can write back to me and tell me what you are doing.
