Part 3 of our journey, and we have stumbled a bit our luggage has vanished, somewhere between FInland and Russia, we are now in day 2 in the same clothes and I have no hair product and my hair looks like s*** , not to mention my clothes don't really suit the glamour of ST Petersburg but I guess this is what travel is all about and pulling hats, hoods et al on and off my head does not help, my shoes are trashed from all the slush we are sliding through, and dodging falling ice from roofs, alway's a challenge, some poor woman was killed this morning ,falling ice hit her ! poor bugga . So we meet our Russian guide Victor this morning and we are taken to the Hermitage Museum my goodness what a collection and we barely scratched the surface, Catherine the Great really new how to collect stuff, and most of it she just enjoyed for herself solely, except for when visiting dignitaries arrived and then she could show her treasures off!!. After a few hours wandering through we end our tour and say goodbye to Victor. Home for snack and off sliding we go into the streets again, VIctor gave us a bottle of the worst sparkling wine we have ever tasted , spicy snacks did not help , now we are off to sample some Vodka's and Miro fancies some Caviar yee hah
