Chernobyl Abandoned Boats

It’s great to see and hear about the Ukraine people fighting back and not letting the Russian military run right over them.  But I can only imagine the toll they are paying in blood to make that happen.  I stand with Ukraine!!

Here are some photos I took (pre-war) of abandoned ships in the Chernobyl River (technically this is near Pripyat which is the city next to the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plants.

Today’s post is another photo from our Chernobyl trip.  I took this photo along the Pripyat River of an abandoned river loading winch.  As you can see, it is starting to fall into the river.  We happened to be here early in the morning at a beautiful time.
