My husband and I took a trip to the Baltic this summer.  We were in St. Petersburg for three days.  What  impressed me the most, (besides the Hermitage) was the people.  NO ONE looks happy, in fact they seem at best -morose.  I’ve just started sorting out my photos from the trip, and thought that when I started sifting through them, someone would appear happy, and change my mind about this country.  I could find only one.  I’ll save it for last.
