Wedding Crashers
St. Petersburg, Russia
May 2013
We were in Russia for five days. Because we did not have a visa ($500), we were confined to trips run by travel agents from the Russian government. We were picked up each morning at our ship. We were escorted on a tour and then taken back to our ship. After four days of this confinement, I had had enough. So I suggested to my three friends that we break free from this routine.
"We can't", Libby stated without reason but with a tone of fear that was loud and clear.
"Yes we can", i responded smugly. But truthfully, i wasn't as courageous as I was letting on. I wanted out but I didn't want Russian prison.
