Nice blooms, guys. The temps were up yesterday and today here in St. Petersburg. We finished up two long days of touring with a before hour special tour of the hermitage. Fantastic. The city is filled with massive apartment buildings as there are no houses. This was brought on by the communist government. Very strange and quite ugly and depressing. Speaking of long days, sunset last night was at 10:45 and it was still light at midnight when we went to bed. I woke at 2:00 AM and the sky was red/orange. Official sunrise is around 4 AM. We sail to Helsinki tonight.
