Midnight in St. Petersburg

Midnight in St. Petersburg and there is still light. crazy 11:00 feels like 6:00. It is quite different here, the first day was a bit harder than we may have expected - that whole , but we have adjusted and are doing great.

Sorry it looks like there will not be pictures until we return -- blogspot seems to have changed how they except pictures-- we will see.

Just came back from a fantastic dinner of chicken pancakes - and an excelent Georgian wine.

This was at 11:00 when it was really still light out.

After dinner we stopped at and bought some water and a few other groceries -- I guess I have never bought eggs in europe -- they come in cartons of 10! crazy.

We had a great day -- started with a walking tour. it ended up being from the same guy who was on the St. Petersburg Globetreker episode - he was great, We are going on another one with him on sunday.

Elaine is posting a more complete update right now-- she types 23 times faster than I. And a longer post disappeared when I opened the spell check.
