Day 9 of Baltic Cruise - St. Petersburg, Day 3

We got into the city on the first shuttle bus. After our first day going through passport control, the next two days were a breeze. They hardly looked at us. I guess we don’t look threatening. We visited Kazan Cathedral, a mall, and hunted for souvenirs. This time were very successful with the souvenirs, so we were happy about that. We started looking for a specific spot for lunch that the Russian teacher had recommended. We found that Russians just tell you a way to go to get rid of you. Ninety minutes later we still hadn’t found the restaurant, but we did find another very authentic fast-food Russian restaurant. The best Russian meal we had, in my opinion, and the least expensive. We made our way back to the ship and we sailed away for Finland at 6:00 p.m.
