We decided we needed a holiday from our holiday and so didn’t
go on today’s tour which was a cruise on the canals of St. Petersburg. Instead we slept in, read, rested, did some
research, did some washing, ate, drank cuppas, a few wines, chatted and enjoyed
the company of others on board. It was a
lovely day.
At 5pm we left St. Petersburg, travelling on the River Reva
and then into Lake Ladoga, this is the largest lake in Europe. Late this afternoon they had a safety drill
where we all had to put on our life jackets and meet in the lounge. This was a good idea as the music that was
playing when we came on board was the theme tune from Titanic!!!! So in the ‘unlikely event of anything happening’
we all know what to do and where to go.
Right now it is time to go to bed.
