Tim and Debbie's Travels....
Privyet!
Finally we get round to updating our site...its been a chilled couple of days mainly because it is soooo baking hot we can't move. On the first night we popped out to get some dinner and after enjoying a traditional Russian feast of Japanese rice and noodles, we ended up rocking in at 1.30am and the sun was still out!! Lucky Tim packed his sleeping eye mask!
We have already done some cultural sightseeing and lots and lots of walking. Visited the famous Hermitage museum and Winter Palace where we managed a whole two hours of admiring antiques and following tour groups of pensioners. Sadly we had to knock it on the head after failing to locate the stairs to the second floor.
Tim has decided the Russkie women are quite sexy in a slutty kind of way, and certainly they like their clothes very tight, very short and see-through and are apparently not big bra fans. Russian men on the other hand seem to be keen supporters of the traditional mullet and elasticated tracksuit trousers brand of fashion. We have enoyed many a beer playing a new game 'Good fashion, bad fashion'.
Plenty of things planned for the next few days including drinking much more vodka, eating beetroot soup and tasty elk steak. Also hoping to see Swan Lake, visit the water park and engage in some good old-fashioned Russian folk dancing. Definately need vodka for that.....xx
