bigdougw3999 Posted August 20, 2007 Author #16 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Oh my was it so good. Just left from eating and on way to casino by the computer room and thought i would type a quick message. food and service was very good would give it a 9.9 out of 10.

linda_22003 Posted August 21, 2007 #17 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I hope you can dock in town, in St. Petersburg. We were out by the terminal, and that building is the single most depressing structure I have ever seen. I think a big reason the Soviet Union fell was that people just couldn't stand any more architecture like that. The guards checking your passport on the way through could stand a few lessons in customer service. They still have such a grim demeanor. One actually smiled at us, and we never saw her again. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdougw3999 Posted August 21, 2007 Author #18 Share Posted August 21, 2007 yes we are docked right in town . did petrohof palace this morning took nap this afternoon on way to moscow tom. need to run we are on way to dinner again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmaf Posted August 21, 2007 #19 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Just checking the weather, is it cool in the evenings? Will we need a light jacket? We leave tomorrow for Stockholm. Thanks for the live reports! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdougw3999 Posted August 22, 2007 Author #20 Share Posted August 22, 2007 well as far as temperature yes some evenings and early morning a light jacket is nice. Just back from Moscow and boy was it hot 34 degrees celicius in moscow today. But even with the heat it was a wonderful day. Kremlin was great to see as well as red square. There is just so much to see and only so much time to see it all. well its now 11:20 pm and was up at 5:30 to leave ship for Moscow before 7 am. So will write more tomorrow and answer any more questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare RachelG Posted August 22, 2007 #23 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Approx how much did the trip to Moscow cost? I am trying to decided if it will be worth it considering it is for a day only and having to get up so very early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCCruzQueen Posted August 23, 2007 #24 Share Posted August 23, 2007 RachelG, Yes, it is a very long day to Moscow. You get up and leave the ship around 7:15 AM, drive to the StP airport. Take an hour flight to Moscow. Drive about an hour into the Kremlin. Tour there, eat lunch, visit a new cathedral then to Red Square. (That was our day last year, but we had to wait until the end of the day to get into Red Square. The announcement of the Olympics was that day and thousands of people were in the square waiting for the word.) Then you drive through rush hour traffic to get back to the airport. Then fly back to StP. We got back to the ship after 10PM and had a late dinner in La Verranda. You have to weight the pros and cons. I loved the day and know it will most likely be my only visit to Moscow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdougw3999 Posted August 23, 2007 Author #25 Share Posted August 23, 2007 yes as previous post said it was that schedule this year . As we decided when else would you get the chance to visit Moscow so we did it and would do it again since great day. Well today of to hermitage and then we sail off for Stockholm . well need to get off to go but should post again this afternoon form here so keep those questions coming. As for a massage have not had time as of yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
