Heading for Russia - slow blogging ahead

I have been having a slow go of updating. I am leaving in 1 hr for St. Petersburg Russia, not sure how much freedom to post I will have once I am there but will try. Helsinki and Tallinn updates may not come for a while.

All is well here.

UPDATE - am now in St.Petersburg, and the blogging is easy. Will try to post more tonight but still no photos.
