G'day, mate! Thanks for your fabulous page!~
Good tips & photos, and nice page- interesting descriptions. Well done Kashi.
Russia is a place I would love to visit. A very nice page, thank you for sharing.
Kashi, fantastic page with great photos of St. Petersburg. Although I once stayed almost a week in the city, I didn't find the time to visit the Hermitage. The Monument to the Heroic Defenders of Leningrad and the Lenin Statue are my sort of thing though.
Lucky you !! I would love to visit Russia.Great pages and the Hermitage Museum looks wonderful!
interesting page of other Russian city. glad you had a good weather!
Hey, Love your pics of the museum, esp pic 3 & 4. Never seen these shots anywhere! Also, never knew it was a residence! Thanks
