I do have family that goes every year, and they really enjoy themselves. Plenty of things to do (so I hear).

I have to ask, I can't help myself from being nosey - Where in Russia is your ancestry, and where does the family go on its visits?
If you get the chance to go to St Petersburg, go, and damn the expense. I went about 18 years ago (glasnost era), and it was the most incredible and beautiful city. I went to Yalta and Moscow too and, although nice, they were both an anticlimax after St P.
