The Kremlin was pretty ruddy impressive... as you will see from the pics!


But St.Basil's the previous night was fairly untouchable


Red square at night, mikey's delight!

Anyhoo, click on the link above and you can look at them all in full detail, even get free copies if you like. just don't sell them before i get a chance!!

Last night saw our first overnight train journey from Moscow's Leningradsky Station to St church of the spilled blood
church of the spilled blood
. Petersburg in the North. 8hrs later we arrived with all the aches and pains you'd expect, but the sun is shining and i'm wearing my shorts :)
On first impressions, st.petes is far more relaxed and laid back than the capital, much more up my street. The locals far friendlier and willing to help break the language barrier, which is fantastic. Canadian Sean who we met in Moscow is coming up to meet us on monday for a few days before we clear off once more on the trans sib. The next month is subject to rearrangement depending on England's world cup progress!

Once i find out more, i'll let you know. check out the pics and keep in touch folks!
