Tues. Aug. 20, a - St. Petersburg

For the last TWO nights we have had to move our clocks FORWARD. So, we have lost 2 hours and now must get off the boat at 7 am. We ordered room service.


This is really St. Petersburg in a nutshell. Lots of gold seen through wires between zillions of cars. The first morning we drove around to various picture opportunities. The sun was shining on the many golden domes.


Then we stopped at our first souvenir shop. Marushka dolls as far as the eye could see. The main reason for stopping at these places is because they have lots of clean bathrooms.


The Bronze Horseman is an important novel in Russian literature. We parked here to go on our canal boat ride.

Is there above ground transportation that uses the wires? Like San Fran?
