☢️ CHERNOBYL, Take 2! - Back through my archive! ☢️

☢️ E X I T - T H E - M A T R I X ☢️

Here's our 1970's Ukrainian LAZ bus, booked specifically by "GAMMA Travel" to cater for the self confessed "bus nerds" (or "veges") in our group.

While parked in this square, just after we all got out, one of the rear tires blew out! The bang echoed around around the square like a gunshot.

At first, our tour guide, Nikolai, thought it was "Chernobyl Stalkers" playing a joke on us. We were told that the Stalkers enter the zone illegally to explore and graffiti. The punishment for entering this military exclusion zone illegally? - Being escorted back to the outer checkpoint, put in a taxi back to Kyiv, and fined something in the region of £10! Apparently the fines and punishment were due to be massively increased.=
