Cruising from St. Petersburg (Russia) to Moscow

Early in the morning on Thursday, August 4.our group of 13 couples plus me entered the new fast train "Allegro" from Helsinki to St. Petersburg. After 3,5 hours we stepped out at Finland station into beautiful sunshine. We then had a bus sightseeing tour in this very attractive old capital of Russia. Definitely this city, which was built just over 300 years ago by zar Peter the Great, is one of the most beautiful cities in the
world. After the bus tour we had a couple of hours to enjoy the life in surroundings of the famous main street " Newski Prospekt" before boarding our luxory cruiser 5-star m/s "Volga Dream".
I'll have to discontinue untill tomorrow.
