Enchanting, Mysterious Russia - One of Sam's Exotic Travels

I visited the Russian cities: Moscow and St. Petersburg in July 2005. with my camera. While Russia is the world's largest country spanning two continents, having grown up during the days of the Iron Curtain and the Cold War followed by the collapse of communism, my expectations were mixed. What I found was surprising. Come join me on another of Sam's Exotic Travels.
