Second day in St. Petersburg

The kids with our guide, Svetlana. She was so wonderful and knowledgeable. She really made our 2 days in St. Petersburg memorable.
At Peterhof Gardens. Peterhof was the summer palace of Peter the Great. There are about 40 fountains on the property and they are all stunning. There were many that you could walk or run though, which was nice considering it was so hot!

Our appetizer for lunch at the summer palace, borscht. Don't know if I'm spelling it right, but it is a typical Russian meal. Beets, cabbage, rosemary, and sometimes meat if its available. It was delicious even though it looked a little suspicious!


Ellie, Anna, Quinn and Travis taking a break from all the walking!
