The travelers drove from Cappadocia to Kayseri. It rained hard, revealing that their rental vehicle had bad wipers. There wasn't much traffic, but Google routed them strangely including a trip through Kayseri's industrial district.
In Kayseri the travelers stayed in Setenonu 1892 Hotel, a very fancy hotel in the center of the city. They had two rooms, with three beds this time. Nancy used the very fancy hotel bathroom for her laundry, a humorous juxtaposition. After settling in, the travelers had a quick dinner within walking distance. The waiter and restaurant owner spoke no english. It continued to rain very hard.

[38.716 N, 35.485 E] The travelers enjoyed a wonderful drive over Mt Erciyes from Kayseri to Develi. They met their guide (Selim Akdoğan) at the entrance of town.
The traveler's ancestors that lived in Develi had the surname Torosian. This corresponds to the Toros mountain range, which pass through Develi.
The Torosians were, in part, vineyard owners. There are no longer vineyards in Develi, but the same valley described in Nancy's notes still has visible terracing from those days. The entire area was clearly farmed in the past. The guide Selim remembered the time when there were vineyards from his own childhood.

[38.392 N, 35.502 E] Nancy's notes contained references of a fountain, where spring water would emerge with great force. This old fountain has been converted into a swimming pool. There are many springs around Develi, which lead to a "ground irrigated" effect and relatively fertile soil.

[38.387 n, 35.501 e] The guide Selim showed the travelers where the ruins of St. Trovos were. This is likely where the Torosians would have attended church. It has now been made into a childrens playground, with only one wall of the church still standing.

[38.387 N, 35.496 E] Selim was kind enough to introduce the travelers to the municipality officials at the head office of Develi. These are the locally elected government officials. The travelers were introduced to the acting mayor, and the acting director of culture and social affairs. These officials were very accommodating, seeing that all needs were taken care of. They even vacuum packed the goat cheese (Tulum) that the travelers were still carrying from Kemeryaka. The culture and social affairs director (Ali Orhan), stayed with the travelers for the remainder of their visit.
All enjoyed a discussion of Torosian property and Develi history. A map showing the various districts of Develi hung on the wall. The Torosian family lived in the Fenesse district. The Everek district was close by, but separated by Turkish occupied land.

[38.391 N, 35.492 E] A school near the town center was serving a special "noah soup", celebrating the date when the biblical arc made ground. Nancy was of great interest to the local students as a professor from America. All gathered around to try out their ability to speak english.

[38.387 N, 35.492 E] Along the walking tour of Fenesse, the travelers meet a local family making grape syrup on the street. They share their creation, which tasted very sweet with unusual undertones.

[38.383 N, 35.491 E] They visited many old buildings.

Many of these buildings were around even when Armenians occupied this area.
[38.383 N, 35.490 E] There were also local people knocking down walnuts from trees. The freshly harvested walnuts had a strong flavor.
