hen I was kid, I used to watch a lot of movies with my dad. A typical guy, he's a huge fan of Western movies - particularly the "Spaghetti Westerns" that Clint Eastwood made famous. I think I've seen all of Clint's Spaghetti Westerns including the trilogy that got him on the map as an actor - "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly", "Fist Full of Dollars", and "A Few More Dollars". The trilogy centered around a character simply known as "The Man With No Name", an anti-heroic gunslinger for whom money is the only motivation and the villains are merely obstacles to be removed. I was too young to remember any of the stories - probably a good thing since all three were pretty violent movies for the day and I was an impressionable young child :-)![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ60DelEoiTPlIZx8gR9O5WRcv6fZwiiqcVHq5_rm59TH95kNgzYcYmzPEAgQi8pzrJLFVa6vjeOxPeoAfXkOtouXuOLahMSWc6sq6P1EvJX6g30FwvEyAOgfz9S9vHZV_0am4JV6ENUI6/s320/leiasclint3.jpg)
On our first day in Cappdocia, I realized it was a wee bit colder than I was prepared for. I was particularly concerned about keeping warm on the ballon ride the next morning. I decided I needed to buy some item of warm clothing and so Lei and I went shopping in Göreme. The first shop we walked in, I found a poncho - not the prettiest thing but it felt warm. Though Lei already had a sweater, she's such an impulse shopper, she couldn't resist so she bought herself one as well.
