Dear Michael,
Here I am in Saint Petersburg in Russia with my family! It’s a great place! Yesterday we visited the Elaginoostrovsky Palace of wax figures and went on some amazing rides at a fun park. This morning we took a steamship ride on the river and this afternoon we are going to the Dolphinarium. I can’t wait to see the dolphins do clever tricks there!
Tomorrow night we are going to the famous Puppet Theatre to see a play. There are so many amazing things to do here! You must visit Saint Petersburg one day!
See you next week.
Love,
Sally.

Saint Petersburg is located on the River Neva and was founded by Peter the Great in 1703. It is Russia’s second largest city after Moscow with about 5 million inhabitants. It is a beautiful port city famous for its canals, amazing architecture, museums, theatres and also its ‘white nights’ in the summer when the sun never sets. Saint Petersburg is also home to the Hermitage, one of the largest and most amazing art museums in the world. There are so many incredible things to see and do in Saint Petersburg!
