This Friday, after a tiring week at work we decided to do boat tour on the river Ob. The goal was simply to enjoy the river in its liquid state while it lasts. I was not expecting the tour to be so nice: what a beautiful and inspiring moment… almost spiritual. The light was almost perfect (I hardly had to warmify the pictures to give them this yellow light), and the boat was slightly too fast for the mosquitoes and horseflies to keep up with us… perfect. It felt like on the Love Boat TV series, which the not so young among you must remember…. I was expecting to see the doc, Gopher or the captain’s red hair daughter to show up at any time. The boat went upstream to a tiny island with a name I don’t remember (Ob Island HV554 or something like that) and the cool kids left the boat to spend the night on the island. I could have spent the night out too, no question about that, but I had this 5000-piece puzzle of a DNA molecule at home which I really wanted to complete.
I am posting a few pictures of the trip below. You will see the sunset by the longest bridge of Siberia (still, just long enough to connect both ends of the river), some guys fishing, a nice picture of a power plant shining in the sunlight... All that within a 60 minute boat ride.

That is a beautiful power plant glinting in the sun. I can see why you found it so romantic.
You are so cute. I laughed until one cries in open area working place. Thanks for a good mood :-) МF
Very shiny power plant, isn't it? I guess that must be a solar one.
