Did you go into the grade school library? That was probably my favorite part. That, followed by the swimming pool and then the hotel.
What group did you go with? I hear the government is officially sponsoring trips now, or something like that. |

What did they call the guys that went in to cap it? Liquidators or something like that? Did you see all the contaminated helos?

FWIW, if you haven't gone to the museum in Kyiv, I recommend it.

We didn't go to the vehicle "grave yard" as they call it. Some tourists got sick from the radiation walking through there so it's off-limits now. |

Cool pics.
On a semi-related note, it would appear that the makers of Call of Duty:Modern Warfare really did their homework when they designed the game. |

One day won't hurt you - they have workers out there in some places for weeks or more at a time, they do some sort of rotation. |

I've never been there before. I remember the tour guide telling us the train station is coming up and thinking "this will be good". Pretty bad excuse for a train station. I wish I could have gotten a picture of that large soviet radar array on the way out of the exclusion zone but my SD card was full |

Thanks for posting. I've always wanted to visit Pripyat. Did you travel to the area specifically to see Pripyat, or was it a side trip?
