Kiziltaş (Van), Turkey | |
10 June 2010 |
Because our minivan needed some attention by a motor mechanic, Matty dropped us in the middle of nowhere - some place between agricultural fields. As the car repair lasted longer than anticipated, we spent quite a few hours at this location. The advantage of such unplanned stays is that you explore the area much better than just cursorily. |
