A moment of humour by morgenhund
Without a doubt I would have to suggest going to the Hermitage - superlatives fail me.Apart from having a wonderful holiday with my girlfriend, the conversation I had with the two uniformed ladies in the picture.Girl one: Hello Sir! Would you like to come on a special tour with us?
Me: I'd love to, and I'm sure my girlfriend would like to as well!
Girl two: Maybe you could come on a tour with us alone another time too!
Me: What an enchanting offer!
Girl one: We will show you everything in St Petersburg!
Me: I am sure you will!
Girl two: I really like your English accent!
Me: I've been rather fond of it for a long time myself.
Girl one: Do you like our uniforms!
Me: They are very fetching.
Girl one: Sometimes we wear other uniforms (winking).
Me: Do you have a Mozart costume?
Girl two: No! Sadly not!
Me: That's a shame!
Girl one: But we look like Nutcracker characters.
Me: Indeed!
Girl one: Perhaps your girlfriend will take a picture of you with us...
and so it continued... They tried everything to get us/me on a tour, but sadly we unsuccessful. The shot of them walking off had to be taken to remind me of the conversation...
