| Page Views: 2,386 | White Nights of Summer - and Winter! by sennaya - last update: Apr 23, 2008 |
It doesn't matter where you celebrate the season as long as you are with the one you love!
Sunny Days of Russian Country life Living in Northwest Russia we enjoy the famous white nights of summer when it never quite gets dark. And in Winter the white snow reflects the moon and streetlights and those 18-hour nights are kindly illuminated.
Treasure the sunny days of summer and chances to explore. Enjoy it every day. Don't loose any moment to be together. We remember it , like it was a few days ago!
In St. Petersburg are more light hours then somewhere else becouse of the White Nights! And we treasure it. |
|  | Where the river flows... Where the river flows, the journey goes. We always love to be near water. St. Petersburg is the city of 43 islands separated by canals and rivers. Russia's first highways were the rivers as the vikings and all that followed have used. It were much more islands. People put it together. And soon it will be one big island... |
| Film projects. This is working! Just imagine! |
|  | Turn back the clock A nice day for a stroll along the Neva River. It is easy to travel back in time in St. Petersburg. Most buildings are between 100-300 years old. Feel yourself in the 19th century walking with the likes of Pushkin :) See our "So you'd like to be in the movies" travelogue under StPetersburg. The center of St. Petersburg is surrounded with all shops and services for life. Many people have bought cars and the streets now have a rush-hour, but you still see a carriage on Palace Square and the sound of hoofbeats are not forgotten by the stones in the street. |
| Christmas on the Palace Square |
|  | C Novim Godom! - Happy New Year! Happy new year in St. Petersburg. The weather is unusually mild with almost no snow and temperatures above zero most days. We had a white new year, but the snow melted on New Year Day. There is no ice on the Neva River or canals up to the end of January 2007. But February was cold! |
| Yosemite Valley, Yosemite Falls in Summer |
|  | Yosemite a favorite place From the Yosemite Valley you can see Yosemite Falls and walk along the Merced River. The river flows to the Pacific Ocean, the biggest ocean on the planet. Nature is supersized and you feel the small position left for humans in the universe. Only your mind might be bigger. |
| Carmel walk among the cyprus |
|  | California coast The Central Coast of California has a wonderful mild climate. Cool in summer, mild in winter. Here, walking in Carmel, the artist colony turned trendy. So many art galleries! But you can escape to nature in minutes. Nature that has inspired so many artists. We can see their art in a different places and that place still inspire a new artists! |
|  | Oregon- Geen Days, Summer and Winter Along the Rogue River in Southern Oregon, in the State of Jefferson. Moderate weather, fresh air and water. It is easy to a life going side by side with you. A nature life is so beautiful and you want to be there . |
| Winter Canal by the Hermitage |
|  | St. Petersburg, Russia A beautiful setting for weddings. There are even travel companies making wedding tours from China now. Thirty couples at a time marry in one ceremony and tour the city on a bus. Get married in Russia! See our travelogue for St. Petersburg for more pictures. And write ti us if you are going to marry! |
