St Petersburg Four

More free time so time for a stroll around the streets.



Apple store St Petersburg. Culture really does exist here.



More autumn leaves. These workers are bagging them for removal. Ignore the rain gear. There was only a faint drizzle.


Must be Saturday, another wedding day. The stretch could be on the streets of Townsville. Perhaps the young ones dont care of the reputation of St Petersburg.




OK, I admit to a morbid fascination with the puffballs. Here are several more. Note that they are rugged up sensibly.








And here is why they are having their photos taken on this bridge. The colourful church is The Church of Our Saviour on the Spilled Blood. It was built on the spot where Emperor Alexander II was assassinated in March 1881, hence the weird name.
On one of St Petes 60 sunny days it would be quite a sight.
