Nevski Prospect to the Neva River
11 giugno 2018, Russia ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Confidently leaving our hotel ( The Atrium) , we headed east along Nevski prospect, St Petersburg's main thoroughfare to take the metro from Alexander Nevski (M) one stop to Vosstanya Ploshad. Confidently purchasing our metro tokens and descending deep into the Earth and successfully alighted at our predetermined stop.
Again on Nevsky Prospect we turned left to walk to Fontanka Canal.
Just checking we asked a local security guard to confirm our direction and luckily we did because he advised us to turn right. Walking on for at least twenty minutes we arrived (back) at Alexander Nevski (M).
Our first hiccup of the day.Leggi altro

Hermitage to The Russian Vodka Museum
12 giugno 2018, Russia ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
A breakfast of green onion and egg sandwich and coffee at our favourite 'bulachnaya' gave us the energy required to stand in line for 90 minutes and flow with the crowd in the Hermitage for 2 hours.
An amazing collection of art, history and Russian pride.
Unlike 15 years ago the staff was friendly and helpful and inlike 15 years ago I was able to look out the window onto Dvortsovaya Pl.
Lunch at the the Irish Pub ( it's ok I had borshe and pemini).
Our plans of the fast ferry were thwarted, one by 4 hours of the Hermitage but two by discovery of the location if The Russian Vodka Museum.
Three toasts to the Russian Federation 'Tzarussia' on the occasion of their independence from the Soviet Union ( well that's how he descibed it) and we were amply engaged in world politics with the waiter.
We made a reservation for a Vodka tour tomorrow and dinner at one of St Petersburg's best.
Back into the crowd and the football fever is hotting up.Leggi altro

Slumming it in Kazan
15 giugno 2018, Russia ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
A long day. 1am taxi for a 03:40 flight to Moscow and transit to Kazan to arrive at 8:30.
A train to Kazan Central and taxi drivers who had no idea the hotel's location. Hotel Otrada was a dump so back to the Ramada and a bit more than we expected to pay.
5 Russian military police at the hotel entrance.
We soon discover why, the Australian Ambassador to Russia introduced himself to in the foyer.
Looks like wa are in the safest place in town.
A very comfortable and relaxed city the capital of Tartarsan now filling with Australians anf French.
PS Did I mention that there was only one room left in the motel and yes you guessed it.Leggi altro

Australia vs France
15 giugno 2018, Russia ⋅ 🌙 8 °C
Early up 6am and the sun is already at 40'.
A beautiful walk through a peaceful city.
Then to meet the foe.
But mostly thinking of you at home.
After a quick chat with the Australian Ambassador to Russia we're off.
Young volunteers in red and blue, greetings and high five, Slouch my little kangaroo had a wonderful time.
Russian supporters there in force barracking for us and constantly asking 'do we like Russia' we say of course it is very beautiful and friendly.
I spoke with many French supporters who were in awe of the enthusiasm we brought the game.
After the game more Russians engage us for a talk or even a piva (beer).Leggi altro

A temporary loss (misplacement) of travel documents didn't dampen the enthusiasm to explore in more detail Kazan Hermitage and the Kazan River frontage.

Samara on the mighty Volga
19 giugno 2018, Russia ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
An early morning walk along the embankment and an unexpected meeting of an ex- student and being invited by a class of young gym students for a photo.
If a temporary misplacement of the travel documents didn't dampen a day nor did a temporary loss of Brownie.
Accommodation is over priced so we change.
