CARLETON UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION Waterways of RUSSIA ST. PETERSBURG MOSCOW CRUISING ABOARD THE DELUXE M.S. VOLGA DREAM SEPTEMBER 13 TO 23, 2011 $

Dear Carleton alumni & friends: The timeless pageant that is Russia reveals itself in the scenic rivers, lakes and canals that link St. Petersburg with Moscow. Between these two great cultural capitals lies a countryside seemingly untouched by the 20th century. Golden-domed churches rise out of the early morning mist, quaint wooden villages and old-world farms dot the verdant landscape and the gentle light of early autumn evenings gives an otherworldly dimension to the banks of Russia s great blue road of inland waterways. Join us aboard the exclusively chartered, deluxe M.S. VOLGA DREAM, the premier ship cruising Russia s waterways. Spend two nights aboard ship in St. Petersburg, Russia s window on the West, the majestic legacy of that most visionary of czars, Peter the Great. From St. Petersburg, cruise for six nights through the heartland of Mother Russia, where everyday life goes on at the measured pace it has kept for generations. Here, villagers still dwell in traditional wooden cottages and preserve the folkways of their ancestors, and onion-domed churches and fortified monasteries testify to the abiding faith of the Russian people. Our program concludes with one night aboard ship in the fabled city of Moscow, the political and commercial capital of the world s largest country and the cultural frontier between East and West. This program also features a two-night Post-Cruise Option in Moscow. This unique and always popular program features a thoughtfully crafted itinerary and will appeal not only to the first-time traveller to Russia, but also to the return visitor curious to see the astounding changes that have taken place in Russia s two largest and most important cities. Space is limited, and we encourage you to reserve today; Early Booking savings are available only until March 3, 2011. Sincerely, Jane Gilbert, BJ/80 President Carleton University Alumni Association Study Leader J.L. (Larry) Black is a Distinguished Research Professor at Carleton University and founding director of the Centre for Research on Canadian-Russian Relations (CRCR), University Partnership Centre, Georgian College, in Barrie, Ontario. A former faculty member of Carleton s History Department for thirty years and Director of the Institute for Soviet and East European Studies from 1982 to 1990, Dr. Black holds degrees from Mount Allison, Boston University and McGill, and has written, edited or co-edited some 35 books on Russian and Soviet history, politics, foreign policy and Canadian-Soviet relations. Dr. Black has served as a researcher for NATO and prepared briefs for a number of federal government departments. He is the editor of the Russia and Eurasia Documents Annual series published since 1988 in Florida (with subscribers in 17 countries). His latest book is entitled Russia from Putin to Medvedev: Continuity or Change? (2009).

RUSSIA S CULTURAL CAPITALS Among the world s great capitals of culture, no two cities stand higher than St. Petersburg and Moscow.

This epicentre of art and architecture is showcased during a specially arranged, early opening of the State Hermitage Museum to allow you to view the incomparable treasures of Catherine the Great s spectacular collections.
