3:15-4:30 pm Inside guided tour of St Isaac Cathedral
Inside the Cathedral.
We were just one party of many inside the Cathedral.
I went outside for a break.
Payment for the tour and shopping
After the Cathedral we went to the promised shop for some souvenir shopping. This is where we paid for the two days of the tour.
TJ Travel also were running tours for P&O and we were joined by fellow passengers also at the end of their tours. The free vodka by the tour was a welcome sight as well as the hot drinks – I sampled both. Upstairs I spent a lot of time looking at the original art works on display.
Across the road was small park.
I left everyone else inside the shop and went for a wander and found this Москвич / Moskovitch car.
Just a few cars down was this Subaru – what a contrast!
5:00pm Return to the ship
We said our goodbyes to Alex and our driver.
I am hoping that our fellow passengers send me the promised pictures of all of us posed with Alex.
We skipped the souvenir and drinks shops in the terminal and went straight back onto the ship.
