Basking in sunshine

This is one of the most popular post-card views of St Petersburg. Glad to be here, althoigh just for a day. Walking across the bridge enjoyed the sunshine tenderly heating my shoulders (under the coat as it is still only touched +10 for the first time this year). Was glad to see the usual sunbathing community by the red wall of the fortress - the warmest place in St Pete, or the most cold-resistant citizens of the city.
