"The Hermatage and more" Jcarter's photos around St. Petersburg, Russia [02:38]
A TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow of a travel blog to St. Petersburg, Russia by TravelPod blogger Jcarter titled "The Hermatage and more" Jcarter's travel blog entry: "The second day in St. Petersburg was a full day, with a hike around the city after a quick visit to the Hermatage, a state museum located in the old winter palace, home of the tsars. Our guide was a little man, who met us at our flat. Alex was a doctor and like our guide from the day before, Alexander(another doctor) took time out of his day to take us on an excursion. Alex, hadn't spoken english for nearly 8 years when he was studying medicine in New York City. During our conversation, i found out that he had visited Niagara Falls at the same time i lived there. He came back to Russia working for the medical military and looking after his ailing parents. He explained that he was an internalist working in the archives of the Russian Medical museum and helps publish their journal. Alex took us through The Hermatage a spralling palace that would take 8 days to see everything in it, if you spent a minute on each item. Equally impressive is the acutal building which was the winter home of the tsars. After 3 hours or so of wandering the many rooms at the Hermatage Alex bid us goodbye and off we went in search of some food. We ended up at a chain that serves KFC. Yum. Sometime after KFC, we went on a 1 hour boat tour. We got one a river boat that took us up and down various c****s and rivers. Points of interest ...
