"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.

Boat ride to Divnogorsk



The river station in Krasnoyarsk. On Saturday we took Scott and Jocelyn on the river boat to Divnogorsk. It was a trip of 1 hour each way. The fare is $12 aud each way for an adult.





On the way we passed by Krasnoyarsk port. Ships can travel from Krasnoyarsk all the way to the Arctic Ocean- in the Summer of course.
Scott and Jocelyn. (Jocelyn has flown back to Australia now.)


The rail bridge crossing the Yenisey river.





This church building under construction is in Akademgorodok. It has remained unaltered in 3 years.


The governor's residence.


Udachni suburb from the river.




The scenery of the rock faces from the river as we approached Divnogorsk was impressive.




Back to the hustle and bustle.
Krasnoyarsk hotel.
And a cup of coffee to finish the day off at the New York cafe. (It's a bit overpriced for my liking so it won't become a regular haunch.)
