hermitage

What can I say. The day was again perfect: We were pickedup againby lovely Nadja (with a ‘j’), the best guide there is. We went straight to the Hermitage where we would spend the morning at. We could again skip the line although we wouldn’t have mind to wait since the sun was out even if there was rain announced. We were quite quickly inside this beautiful building, respectively buildings, there are five and they are all connected and you can cross them by going from one room to another. Nadja guided us safely through the labyrinth and the mass of people. We learned about art and the building. After 2.5h we were ready for some coffee and Nadja showed as a café at the Institut français in a backyard of the mainstreet. Perfect. After a croissant we said our goodbyes for the day and went to the Peter & Paul Festung from where that marvelous city was founded. We had icecream at some point, I put my feet into the Neva river and we were still enjoying the beautiful weather. The golden roofs look just a bit better under the sun. Just before we got home rain started - we didn’t mind, had a nap at the hotel and went out for some Italian food. It was deliciously delicious. Really mouthwatering good. And so went another day here in Saint Petersburg. I am so grateful to spend that journey with my parents. They are so lovely and we have such a good time. Unforgettable.Baca selengkapnya
