St Petersburg in 1 hour (and 8 minutes)

Oh my GOSH it has been so long since I last posted! (I must stop starting posts like this.) Anyway, I'm currently in St Petersburg for a few weeks and this afternoon I had a few free hours so I decided to set myself a challenge. As I've been here so many times before, I've visited all the main sites so today I thought I would try and see them all in 1 hour. The great thing about St Petes is that everything is so central so you can walk everywhere. I set off at 4pm and (almost!) managed to get round everything in an hour... Here's what I saw:
