I made a little sign because I was afraid we would forget the exact time.
This was the view of St. Petersburg, from our balcony on the ship at 11:20 pm!!!
One of our tour guides told us that late June has the shortest day of
the year with only three hours of twilight---it doesn't even get really
dark at that time of the year. We couldn't believe our eyes...and it
was hard to not sit outside much longer---it just didn't feel right to
go inside and go to bed when it looked like it was still suppertime!
Tallinn, Estonia, next stop!
Cheers
:o)
Interesting architecture! 11:20pm??? WOW! I like the darkness of nighttime and can't imagine not having it.
ReplyDeleteWow look at those churches! Still light at 11.20 - it must play havoc with your body clocks.
ReplyDeleteThat is so incredible to see day light so long in the day. I have never been to Russia but my mom in law has and she liked it. Oh, I can hardly wait to see photos of Estonia.
ReplyDeleteoh what a beautiful place!! i am never able to sleep when it's light out!!
ReplyDeleteI just popped back to your blog for the first time in a while and I'm feeling so inspired by all your travel posts! Will you guys be in town over the holidays? I'll have a million questions for you!
