Europe 2013 https://journals.worldnomads.com/erzulie/ Tue, 19 May 2026 15:33:10 GMT World Nomads Adventures Hello from St Petersburg! The 6.5 hour flight to Paris & 3 to Russia was quite pleasant save for the food. blek! But the food wasn't the worst part, not getting Tj's luggage was :( Poor kid is on day 3 in the same clothes. We boarded The Viking Rurik yesterday and have eating non stop ever since. The food, service, and people are very nice. Our day excursion today was a trip to the Hermitage (winter palace housing Catherine the Great's art collection) There are 117 staircases and more than 1,057 rooms filled with famous art purchased 1764-1774. My fave.... Monet & Renoir. The weather has been sunny and in the 80's w/ zero humidity. tonight we're going to the ballet to see Swan Lake. https://journals.worldnomads.com/erzulie/story/102958/Russian-Federation/Russia Travel Russian Federation erzulie https://journals.worldnomads.com/erzulie/story/102958/Russian-Federation/Russia#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/erzulie/story/102958/Russian-Federation/Russia Wed, 26 Jun 2013 21:17:00 GMT 0
