I
am so tired, I am just barely writing this blog relying on coffee to keep me
awake. The teacher who is leading this trip thought it would be nice to wake up
at 11: 00 pm and travel to the mountain. I must admit it was quite beautiful to
see the sunrise, but I would rather have gotten some sleep. Here is what we
learned, though I am sure we will be taught it again, because if how little
sleep we got.
Turkey is part of a transform boundary, located on the Anatolian Fault which runs between the Eurasian and Anatolian plate. A transform boundary is when two plates are sliding past each other. Fracture zones which balance pieces of the mid-ocean ridge are transform boundaries. Here it is the Eurasian and Anatolian plates that are sliding past each other.
So
we all have to be at the airport in three hours and between that time I plan on
eating some Turkish food, especially desserts!
elveda!
