The first stop on our Russia trip will be St. Petersburg where we will be for 7 days. While in St. Petersburg, we will visit the Peter and Paul Fortress, St. Isaac's Cathedral, Vasilyevsky Island, the University, the Winter Palace, Church of the Spilled Blood, and the Hermitage Museum. We will also visit a city orphanage, a birthing hospital and the Ministry Committee. We hope to attend a performance at the Mariinsky Opera and Ballet Theatre and an evening folk show. Outside the city of St. Petersburg we will visit Peterhof, seeing the many fountains, park and palace and Zelenogorsk, visiting the summer orphanage and, weather permitting, the Golden Beach on the Finnish Gulf.
After our 7 days in St. Petersburg, we board a train and travel to Moscow for 3 days. In Moscow we will visit Red Square, Lenin's Mausoleum, St. Basil's Cathedral, the Kremlin, including the Armoury Museum, Novodevichy Convent and the Museum of Russian Art.
