St Petersburg

We turned the Norway/Sweden motorhome in at Helsinki, and then took an overnight ferry to St Petersberg. If you arrive and depart via ferry, and stay only three days, you don't have to buy $200 Russian visas. We were fascinated by St Petersberg.
Norway September 2012 Motorhome
We rented a small motorhome and made a south to north loop through western Norway. This motorhome was just the right size for two people, with a fixed bed in the back, and captains chairs in the front which spin around to face the table. The roads in the fjords were sometimes one lane with wide spots every 400 meters or so for passing. We went through many tunnels and rode 9 ferries through the Fjords. We rented in Oslo, went to Stockholm after Norway, and then took a ferry to Finland. It was a Finnish motorhome rental company, and they gave us like $600 off for bringing their motorhome back to Finland in September.

Stockholm is a a really nice city to visit, with many unique museums. We stayed at a campground on a train line outside the city, and bought a 5-day City card. I think the Vasa Museum was our favorite, and the old town.

The best thing about Santorini was our hotel, the Athermi. This is the view from our room.
