Hi.

Just returned from a fabulous week on the Navigator, from Stockholm to Copenhagen. Wonderful weather, 70's, blue skys. The ship was as lovely as the pictures and the staff consistently helpful, and kind. Was a joy to spend the day touring the towns and coming back for tea, trivia games, and dinner. Met very interesting people on the tour, sophisticated and well-traveled. The ports, including Talinin, St. Petersburgh, Helsinki, an Visby are not to be missed. The day trip to Moscow was well worth the long day. I recommend private guides in Russia to make the experience more meaningful.

Welcome back, Marcia! We also thought the day to Moscow was a highlight of our trip. You are right - it's a long day. We traveled in 2003. Are the Russian flight attendants still wearing uniforms that are circa 1960's?

Thanks for posting & glad you enjoyed! Cheers, Anne

Welcome home, Marcia! So good to hear you enjoyed your Baltics cruise. The destinations are fantastic and our day trip to Moscow was a highlight for us, as well. So glad we chose to do that excursion. It was a very long day, but one that is an experience of a lifetime!

Dear Marcia,
Welcome home! I agree with you that the day trip to Moscow was incredible. The plane ride alone was an experience. Where else can you hire your own police force to stop the traffic?
Glad you had fun!
Love, Elena <img border="0" alt="[beer]" title="" src="graemlins/beer.gif" />

You put a smile on my face, Elena! The traffic in Moscow is unreal (and we're from NY, land of horrible traffic and road rage!). Despite the police escort, those drivers yielded to no one! Moscow bumper cars! It was really exciting to experience it!
