The Hermitage

One of the famous attractions of St. Petersburg is The Hermitage. And, the blue-shirted escorts got to go today! And boy, did we look good! =) Actually, check out the picture for a hilarious pic. Bob had to wear a girl’s shirt because they were out of men’s shirts, and mine was too small. But, we followed the rules and wore our shirts and set out to one of the most famous art museums in the world. I laughed at one point when I saw Bob counting his group in The Hermitage, looking all official wearing his skin tight, girl’s shirt. He was so hilarious! In a museum like this one, it’s hard to know when to stop taking photos. I mean, everything thing’s a picture, literally, and you can snap yourself silly. But, then you realize that someone is going to have to look at these, and you may not remember the names of any of the artists when you get home. But, I’m going to show you some of the pieces of the collections they have, as well as show you what the interior of this amazing museum looks like. It’s quite a spectacle! Catherine the Great really loved her art, and she loved lots of grand, gold, glitzy design. So, enjoy the view of the Winter Palace/The Hermitage.
I know the resolution is bad, but I just had to show you our hilarious escort outfits.
