Loving St. Pete

Happy transfer to Vosstaniya Ulitsa.  Yesterday afternoon we strolled through Liteyniy, visiting the Cathedral of the Transfiguration and the Church of St. Panteleymon, then though gardens (Marsovo Pole), along canals and past palaces to the dazzling extravaganza of the Cathedral of the Saviour on the Spilt Blood.  Fab moment cooling our feet in the Griboedov Canal.  Then on to Nevsky Prospect and a happy hour spent browsing in Dom Knigi, with coffee in the cafe overlooking the Kazan Cathedral.  Some grocery shopping and dinner in a nice wine-bar, Probka, by the Church of SS. Simeon and Anna.
