End of an epic journey!

Here we are sitting in cafe zoom in st Petersburg having just waved
goodbye to Megan and nain who are on their way to Frankfurt to be
joined by becca and gwyn tomorrow. Internet access has been rare so we
haven't been updating blog but here are our highlights;

Nain - amber room at catherine's palace in Pushkin and kremlin in Moscow

Gwyn - lenin's tomb and kihzi island

Kate - kremlin square with churches as sun came out and struck the dome

Meg - dinner with the lady in uglich, seeing her gardens, and pastoral
landscape in general.

Bec - all the interiors of churches covered with frescoes.
