We passed a lot of fortifications on our way out of St. Petersburg harbor.

I'm not quite sure if this was a fort or a gulag.

Once we were far enough out, the pilot left our ship and we were on our own.

On our way out from St. Petersburg we passed a long line of ships...

I guess we were in the carpool lane

Around midnight I took a picture from our stateroom

and another from topside.
