Holiday Photo Album Russia - St Petersburg - Part 1 

Album 68 - Arriving at St Petersburg Airport, we located our driver who pointed out various landmarks on the way to the Hotel Arkadia. It was right in the heart of St Petersburg on the Fontanka River. From here we ventured out on foot in a different direction each day. Highlights of our first couple of days were seeing Swan Lake Ballet at the Alexsandrinskiy Theatre and our day trip to Catherine Palace in nearby Pushkin. Missed the last Album?
