Tatvan - Nemrut Dagi II

There is a second Nemrut Dagi right next to Tatvan.
Philip and İ biked/hiked up yesterday.
İt was wonderful to stand on the edge of the crater and look down on the lake.
İn the crater we went for a brief swim (4 degree?!) and slept in total solitude for a hour.
The mountain is 2800m high and it was quite strenuous to climb up.
Back in Tatvan we engaged in serious cooking - Fish. Philip has all the camping equipment. İt was fun tho cook in a public park under observation of about 10 people.
