Thank you for joining us. I'm glad we can share the beauty of this town with you!

What a fun way to kick off Summer! I think I paused a few times during the video just to take in all the marvelous architectures with all the history! Thank you for sharing that with us! And it's nice to see Mark receiving all the up close and educational field trips!

I'm so glad to hear this! Thanks for joining us on our little trip. Mark really takes great interest in such trips. Children's books about the places we are going to visit especially help to awaken interest. This time was no exception either.

Hello from Toronto Canada, love the video and the tradition of sending a post card from every place you visit. My new tradition, what a great idea.

Hello Alex & Catherine!! 👋. So nicd to see a video from you and your trip! WOW!! What a neat place to visit!! Mark was so cute with his little Camera 📸😂. I love the idea of getting a Post Card from all the places you visit and then forwarding it to your Home Address. What a nice souvenir! 👍. Those Restaurants and Cafes look very tasty! 😋. So much History in your Country! 🤗. Im so happy you guys coukd travel and make Special Memories with the Kids!! ☺️😊. We've been getting lots of Rain ☔ here, but im not complaining! ☺️ The beautiful sound the raindrops make on Our Balcony Railing is SOOO Soothing!!! Tomorrow, we head to the Big City for Mark to go doing some Testings for his heart. It will make for a long day! But the City is so beautiful with lots of Mountains to look at. Mark and I will enjoy going to the Cafe in the Hospital and have a quiet lunch after all the testing is done. Boy, getting older is not fun! So glad you guys can get out and enjoy your beautiful Country! Your Canadian Friends, Mark & Trudy 🇨🇦

Hi Trudy and Mark! 😊We gave this camera to Mark last year before one of his trips. 📷He was very happy and takes it on all his trips. The camera is amazing, it also prints black and white photos 😄 The idea for postcards came to us spontaneously last year and we immediately began sending postcards on all our trips. We also send cards to parents.✉️📬 It's good to hear you're getting rain as we're currently at +27C. It's hard for us to endure such hot weather.😔 🙏🏻 We will pray for Mark's health! I hope that the tests will show good results. Thank you for joining us on this trip.😊

I too always think that it is a great blessing that we live in a time of such technological advancement. ✨This is especially true for medicine. We are with you in thought, friends!🙏🏻

Hello the cute family! didn't know that Sweden was part of the Russian Empire but it makes sense! what a wonderful trip and above all what a magnificent city! what beautiful streets, magnificent buildings with sublime architecture! at times I had the feeling of being in Finland (which I love very much). I also loved the café where we were and all the delicious things to taste there!! Our french coffee bars are so différent : impossible to eat sole pastel except our traditional croissant 🥐 ! the city doesn't seem huge but there are an incredible number of things to see there! I understand that you want to come back! I do not taste the swedish chocolat but I love so much the finnish one ! (Fazer😋😋😋) It’s always a great pleasure to share your Life and discover your wonderful région. I Hope I will have the opportunity to discover it by myself in the future. Love to all of you from Nice!

Hello! Thanks for joining us on our little trip. It seems to me that I can chat about history endlessly. It's good that Catherine knows how to stop me in time. 😄 Sweden was not part of the Russian Empire, Finland and Poland were part of it. And this city was Swedish from 1293 to 1710. Therefore, there is a mixture of three cultures: Swedish, Russian and Finnish. We walked around the Old Town and did not go to the new part of the town, since this is where the attractions are concentrated. We also love Finnish Fazer chocolate. The local market we showed has a lot of Finnish products. But we also buy Swedish and Estonian chocolate, as this is connected with our memories of a trip to Estonia shortly before Catherine gave birth to Mark. Thank you for joining us on this trip. I am glad that I can share such moments from the life of our family. With love from St. Petersburg 😍

So schön. Ich würde gerne mitkommen 😊
