"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."- St. Peter. "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." - Jesus.

Reindeer in Akademgorodok


Melody had mentioned to me a couple months ago that she had seen a lady giving reindeer rides to kids. Occasionally she turns up with her reindeer and charges 100 rubles for a ride. Abigail sat for a little and we paid 50 rubles, but we were in a hurry so I could catch the train to Abakan on the way to Tuva. It was fun getting this close to a reindeer, when it is something would expect to see in the north but certainly not in the city.
