St. Petersburg, Part II, Russia

Afterward, we toured St. Isaacs Cathedral -- enjoying the view from the top and from the inside (gold gilded doors and moldings, and painted ceilings and walls). People were riding their horses outside the cathedral. We walked around the city and viewed the statue that Catherine the Great had given to honor Peter the Great. We finished the evening at Savior on the Spilled Blood Cathedral where Alexander II is buried, followed by dinner in the Palace - Beef Stroganoff, seafood and medallions of duck.
