From Russia with love~~~~~~~

 Peterhof Palace, St. Petersburg


Catherine Palace, St. Petersburg

So much to share with you later from beautiful St. Petersburg ~ here's just a teaser of the beautiful places we visited in the past two days - and the weather was so kind to us.

On the high seas again today in rain showers heading to Stockholm.

Lovely cruise so far ~ wish you were all here.

  2. What beautiful photos! That palace is magnificent. Since I will most likely never get the chance to travel to these places, I am enjoying the virtual travels through you!

  3. Beautiful! Thank you for sharing. It makes me want to return to St Petersburg and visit the Hermitage again. Did you go? Some absolutely outstanding artwork, but the conditions were dreadful for the conservation of the art when I was there in 2006. Hopefully that might have changed. I'll eagerly await more blog posts.

  4. When we were in St Petersburg we were told that there are very few really sunny days. We had a few and it looks like you did too!

  6. Oh Mary I wish we were there too - it looks amazing.
    Ever since seeing the film Doctor Zhivago I've wanted to travel to Russia, to see the Urals, Saint Petersburg and The Hermitage.
    It's wonderful we have this opportunity to see it through your eyes and photos!

  9. Great photographs, you were lucky with the weather, it wasn't so nice when we visited a few years ago.

  10. Beautiful photographs! So glad that you two are having fun -- hopefully the rain will only be on sea days! We leave for St. John on Sunday, so I'm hoping that we all get nice weather! Lots of love to you both.
