	General map This is for your general orientation. The parallel that goes through Saint-Petersburg is 60°North. You see Sweden, Finland and the Baltic States. Sorry, I found only a version of the map in French.
	Places visited Saint-Petersburg Lake Ladoga Vaalam Island Lake Onega Petrozavodsk Kizhi Island
	From Saint Petersburg to Lake Ladoga There is no scale, but the distance from Saint-Petersburg to Valaam is about 250 km. Lake Ladoga is the biggest European lake, 210 km long and 130 km wide.
	North of Lake Ladoga
	The island of Valaam This island has been the first leg of our cruise. As you can see from the map, there are many monasteries on the island. We did not see all, but we had a good selection. See the picture page.
