You want the truth???

bill actually was really nice in how he made st.p-burg sound. you want the truth? there was human feces on the ground. enough said!!! there was sh*t on the ground. not by a dog (Lord i hope?). not by a horse. a living breathing human being just took a number two on the ground outside of our hostel. aside from breathtaking architecture and amazing food, there is nothing too fantastic about st.petersburg. it makes mexico look like beverly hills. do not get me wrong, russia is amazing but do not ever waste your time at st.p-burg. the people are EXTREMELY RUDE and the place smells like a porta-potty. well, obviously that is because people TAKE CRAPS ON THE GROUND!!!

we are now in Novgorod, russia which is a quaint little town about an hour or two outside of the burg as the locals...well, b and i call it. the place is beautiful! the people are so polite and the food is still awesome! it does not smell too bad here either so that is always a plus. right now we are banging out reservations on the computer looking for our next destination. we are looking at a little town called Valday. we are waiting for a reply on our hotels reso's so in the mean time a little blog action.

we are really happy to see that everyone is slowly but surely getting their postcards. we sent out so damn many!!!!! around 50ish. we really want to know that you guys got them, but we are worried that a lot did not make it. so...if you did get yours please let us know. if you did not get yours...tell us you did! we actually spent about three or four hours last night banging out more of them. everyone should be getting another round in...i guess a month! hopefully not. if you want a postcard and have not given us your info please email us at snyder4@gmail.com. bill says no porn please, NIALL!!!! we really enjoy doing it for you guys because we know some of you's are living vicarioualy through us. bills says "at-ye-bis!" which means "piss off!", but not to you guys. i guess he is just practicing because these guys do not know what "a**hole" means.

we have a lot of really good postings and pictures as well as some really good links. thanks to everyone for still looking us up. like i said we are still learning how to use this blogspot and a lot of these places do not let you upload pictures so that is our delima for right now. please continue to keep checking everyday. i know we are not posting everyday but it has beena challenge to find a place here to blog. i mean...this is the oldest city in russia and there is still A LOT of communism in the air. so things are current...if you like 80's music and mullets. at home we call it retro. here, they call it high fashion. i am waiting to see if platforms and the bee-gee's make it back.
