St. Petersburg
 
Does it makes sense to go to St. Pete in January for a couple of days?

Brrrrrr. Florida or Russia? If Florida, absolutely, and bring your bathing suit and #25 sunblock.<BR><BR>Russia, now that's another story -- if you don't have a fur coat (how politically incorrect) and a gallon of vodka to keep you warm, I would suggest selecting somewhere that is closer to the equator.

It will definitely be warmer than NY.Although the worst hotel I ever stayed in was in St Pete.

Absolutely go to St. Petersburg. It was FREEZING when we went last year in October, but it was worth it. It was a beautiful place. Don't miss Moscow, though. Even if you only have 3 days, I'd plan to split your time between the two cities. Standing in the Red Square in Moscow has been one of my favorite travel experiences ever.

Alexei,<BR>We'll be in St. Petersburg in May. What is the weather usually like then? Thanks.
