Hi Mary! What a beautiful series of Albums you made during your Baltic Cruise! I made the same tour by car (from Italy, through Austria, Germany, Cheks Republic, Poland, Lituania, Latvia, Estonia, Russia, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland in Summer 2004. I have placed some pics of Prague and St.Petersburg (where I celebrated my 50th birthday) in 2 albums you will probably enjoy! It's nice to see places you know with somebody's else eyes! A great hug from Torino. Roberto

These are just wonderful pictures, Mary, the best I've seen of St. Petersburg. Looks like you had great weather, a good camera and not too many people. Thanks for posting them.

Thanks so much for sharing your photos. Brings back memories of my recent Baltic Cruise. If you have a chance please check out my St. Peterburg photos. http://community.webshots.com/user/sunprincess8 Cathy

This is a classy artistic album, when so many cruise albums are filled with shots of ugly people and their drunken antics. One disappointment was that some lovely pics were too small to use as screensavers. Karen, Rochester NY

Hi I have always wanted to see this wonderful place! These are the best way for now, thank you, Liz

Hi Mary, It just gets better and better! You were a busy lady. I hope you're soaking your shutter finger in cool water. Such a talented finger should be taken care of, especially after so much great work. Greetings from Florida, Paul.

Hi Mary! I am so very happy that you and Lorne enjoyed the cruise and had such perfect weather so you could see all the sites. The to be able to capture the beauty in such an awesome way through your eyes for us all to enjoy is a double bonus. I do hope to go see it with Steve but will really enjoy your photos and documentaion till then. Thanks so much for the wonderful album. Love, Helga

Oh this must have been so beautiful, nice capture. I was planning to go to St Petersburg this summer..Now I'm really wishing I hadn't delayed the trip
said balletstarr144
Mary--your photos of your trip just seem to get better and better! What glorious architecture; every view must have been photogenic! One can easily see elaborate dress of silk & lace, & bewigged gentleman strolling down these magnificent hallways.A wonderful tour--you are sure to have a feature soon.--Nancy.

Hi, what a great album, it reminds me of the castle of Luwig the Mad in Bavaria. You really captured the beauty of this magnificant place. Thanks! Trudy-Oregon

Hi Mary, I must congratulate you on your trip, on these pictures and on their documentation. This is a great album and I dare say that I smell a feature in the not too distant future. I love the palace, but my favorite has to be Resurrection Cathedral. What a piece of architecture! I love those domes and you captured them and the facade in exquisite detail. St Isaac’s Cathedral is beautiful too, but a bit less exotic to my western eyes. Thanks for bringing these jewels to us and thanks for your kind words on my "Illusions" album. Greetings from Florida, Paul. P.S. I always knew that St. Petersburg was beautiful, but I just didn't know that it was this beautiful.
said paul_fernandez
Hi Mary. My favorite part of this album is the Catherine's Palace section. It is magnificent. There's is no shortage of gold or at least gold plate.Wow!!Your whole trip must have been an experience to never forget. I'll come back and see some more as you add it. Hugs mate Al..

Hi. Thanks for the comments on my album of the Russian River Cruise. Yes, we stayed on the boat the whole time. The small towns you see on the way are easily visited on the included shore excursions. In the 2 big cities, the docks are not near the center but that is easily overcome. You can go on the ship's excursions or if you've already seen a particular site, you can go on your own or hire a guide. I recommend it as the cheapest and easiest and most relaxing way to see a lot of Russia. Regards, Mary
