Noah's Ark

What an unexpected and fun thing to see.
Johan Huibers is a Dutch builder who used his own money to build this replica of Noah’s Ark.
He enlisted the help of his children, neighbors and volunteers to help with the construction and it took them three years to build it.
It is 135 meters long, 30 meters wide and 23 meters high.
We passed this on our way to Kinderdijk.
This photo was taken from the top deck of our ship.
