Ledz go drrrunking!


So these are basically the more touristy pictures that some of y'all have been wanting. As a caveat, we've been engaging in that second most ancient of Russian pastimes, so...spelling might be a prublem. This here is Lenin's car, in a bix. It's muddy and covered in footprints.

These two are the old angel of the Peter and Paul fortress, which is in the museum at the base, and then the modern angel in its natural habitat. It's taller than it looks, like 128 meters, Marina says.
Here's Peter as seen from Saint Isaac's cathedral. These fountains were put in for the G8 conference last Summer.
More of the same. Pictures cost 25 rubles, the sign says, but I think only the Japanese pay.
