We arrived into St Petersburg at 6.30am and then walked to our hotel, which was only 5 minutes from the station. After checking in we went for breakfast at a place called Sphinx then back to the hotel to meet our local guide Dimitry. Dimitry took us on a tour through St Petersburg. We walked through the alleyways and the back streets looking at some of the main sights of SBP.
We stopped for lunch a long the way at a pancake place, which were really good. After lunch we continued the tour and looked at the Engineers Castle, many monuments to the Tsars and the Church of Spilled Blood. I then went with Erin and Glenn to The Seige of Leningrad Museum, which was quite interesting learning about this piece of history. Afterwards we went to the English bookstore, then to a café for a snack before going back to the hotel to chill out.
Tonight was our last night with the group so we went out for one last dinner together. Tina took us to her favourite restaurant, which was a Czech restaurant. The food was really, really good. After dinner we went to the shop, bought some drinks then went back to my room for a bit of a party and to say goodbye.
