Day 6 – St Petersburg – 14.34

Day 5 – St Petersburg – 14.34

I was in The Hermitage and it was absolutely spectacular. We were in room 204 as the clock struck 14.34. I can't tell you much about the contents of the room but it was aesthetically pleasing. Posted via Blogaway

Day 4 – St Petersburg – 14.34

At 14.34 I was walking through the bookstore to Singer Cafe. It is the biggest bookshop in St Petersburg. The building is stunning and is situated on Nevsky Prospekt.Posted via Blogaway

Fish and bread (and beer)

My new Russian friend has not only introduced me to the language and the music, but the traditional food as well. I don't know the name of my luncheon food but it consisted of fish, mayo, cheese and bread. It was strange at first but it was rather enjoyable, particularly with beer. Posted via Blogaway

I am currently in the Museum of the Defence and Blockade of Leningrad. Finally found something written in English which is promising. Had to be a bit sneaky as no camera permit, whoops.Posted via BlogawayPosted via Blogaway
