Last Day in St. Petersburg!

Vernon and I have had a wonderful time in St. Petersburg! Yesterday we traveled to see Peterhoff, which is a beautiful home with amazing gardens. It rained on us all day, so that was the only drawback.
Today we went to see the Peter and Paul Cathedral, which is where the Romanov family is buried. It is fascinating to see how much of Russia's heritage and history has been recovered in the past 15 years or so. We will visit a few more places tomorrow (Tuesday) as our train does not leave until 6:30 in the evening. I will give a lot more detail along with pictures later (I promise)!

Have a nice day, everyone!

Christa
