Travel Log: Days Twenty-Seven, Twenty-Eight, Twenty-Nine, Thirty, and Thirty-One

Saint Petersburg, Russia 6/11-15/2016

        So, it's pretty obvious I got really behind on these daily blogs. I'm currently at home in Iowa, a few days after getting back to the states, and, especially since Saint Petersburg was so beautiful, I'm thinking it'd be better and easier to do a 'picture blog' for our time in the Venice of the North:
Saturday: Train compartment!
First Stop: Peter's Gardens
Saint Petersburg Eternal Flame
Church of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ
One of the Many Canals
Sunday: The Winter Palace

Monument by the Winter Palace

Little Concert in the Russian Museum

Ballet!
Monday: Catherine's Palace!
