Had a great time in St. Petersburg. On Saturday, we took an afternoon canal/river cruise and the views were amazing.
On Sunday, we went to the Hermitage and it was wonderful as well. We were admitted an hour before it was open to the general public and it was not crowded at all. It helped that there were not many cruise ships in port on Sunday. After the museum, we had three hours on our own and we had lunch on Nevskiy Prospect. Then we went to the Church of the Spilled Blood and the mosaics were amazing.
We had a beautiful sunset on our way to Helsinki.
More about Helsinki tomorrow.
