Zwischenstop / Stopover
Destination 23: km43'335 Der Sonderausflug reduziert sich nur auf Insel Saaremaa, da Fähre nach Hiiumaa nur 4x täglich fährt. Darum gehts weiter um sicherzustellen, dass WM- Match FRA-SUI in Tallinn gesehen werden kann... Beinahe gestürzt ...

Today was a special day, it was Julie's birthday. We’d decided to treat it as a normal day until we’d arrived at our destination, once again until we were actually out there and sailing, we couldn’t predict where it would be. We ...
A Day Full of Surprises
... us was the Overseas 40 and across the pontoon, Beluga. Quite homely really! As we were coming across the channel from Hartermaa to Haapsalu, I got no fewer than 3 missed calls on the mobile. Now as I rarely get calls, even in the UK (Billy no-mates they ...

The White Lady's fate
... then camera at the ready, we were off again on our little bikes to do the sightseeing bit, which principally meant the Haapsalu loss or Episcopal Castle, dating from the thirteenth century (see photo). Apart from being an impressive construction with its ...
The White Lady is a Ghost!
... . Hence the mystery is solved, as clean as if they'd pulled a mask off of someone's head. But there's more... Haapsalu is an old place. Its main centerpiece is an Episcopal castle and dome church that were built around 1279, and were ...
Für 30 Minuten auf Hiiumaa
Eigentlich ist die Idee sehr abgefahren und niemand würde das machen. Doch da ich das Fliegen so sehr gerne habe bot sich die Gelegenheit einen kurzen Hüpfer von Tallinn nach Kardla und zurück zu machen. Die Flugzeit beträgt pro Strecke nur 30 ...
