Elbrus Expedition Dispatch
June 27, 2015 – The Team Has Arrived!
Lina, our Saint Petersburg city tour guide, waiting for our team to arrive from London. It is 2:45 pm and the plane has landed!
Todd, Heather, Nick and Kristen at the airport
Our first stop - we went to the back next door to change some money - dollars into Rubles
Our first meal in Russia - micro brews, salads, stroganoff, mushrooms and potatoes on the street on Nevsky Prospect
A little Russian Folk music with dinner
Our fire fighters from Scottsdale, Todd and Nick, had to check out what goes on in their profession in St Petersburg. We saw this big fire down the street as we walked out from dinner. Not a big deal. It was a large electric sigh that caught fire and burned out quickly.
