Not Russian to leave (by Pam)
... we'll be home in 2 weeks (first time Ben's been home in over 3 years!), although it's sad that our adventures are coming to an end! The following day we took it fairly easy, and did lots of boring jobs like laundry, booking train and bus tickets, blog updates etc. The following day, we headed off to the Hermitage, which was originally the Winter Palace, but now house a MASSIVE art collection.

Seriously though all the big names in art are here Raphael, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Di Vinci the list goes on... I walked past two paintings by Leonardo Di ...
Walking and Vodka and the 3 day homesick blues
... 1091;б or $6.70. I so love parity. It was comfy, thought I might stay a while, took off the outside layers and contemplated. The radio was in Russian but the singing in English. Lily Allen's "**** You" in all it's unedited glory. I was feeling a little homesick, in need of an English speaking conversation.
