... and it was surprisingly nice and gorgeous. I just meandered for a while hitting the shops. Found lots of little antique shops that if I had more money and space at home, I'd have gone crazy. Lots of Russian stuff and apparently everyone here speaks Russian. <br><br>Anyway, met up with the boys for some lunch that was,... kind of blah. No ice, gotta love Europe. They then bailed early back to the ship and I shopped a bit more hoping ...

... any way. In fact the 'serving wench' as Viggo called her was so part of the place in costume and in character it made it great fun. The honey dark ale might well be the best beer I've ever drunk! I had the full litre which was it for a noble thirst' according to the menu. Whatever, It was pure heaven. Today I had the whole afternoon to myself as Viggo was away still trying to get his camera fixed which he ...

Cette nuit c´est Olivier qui est malade comme un chien, il n´ira meme pas travailler, moi ca va et je continue mon aventure vers le port... d´ou mon ferry decolle a 11h30. 2h30 de traversée de la mer Baltique et me voila en Estonie, dernière étape de mon petit voyage. Ici tout est différent, les vieilles batissent zigzagent entre les nouveaux gratte ciel (ou c´est l´inverse), en 2 heures je suis passé d´un des pays les plus riches d´Europe... a un autre ...

... centre it was. And yet, if I had seen Lithuania and Latvia as empty, on the face of it Tallinn gave out an impression of an almost a ghost city. At least on this spot. Literally, just one or two pedestrians per street and that was all. Neither the city map nor the "Lonely Planet" suggested that Kentmanni was hiding anything worthy of lingering longer. Just by the way I took a photo or two and arrived in the street called Sakala. It too, as it seemed, didn't belong among ...

... in downtown Helsinki at 10.30 this morning and as we left I took some photos. After a two and half hour ride we pulled into the port city and I walked the kilometer or so in the soft rain into Tallinn's Old Town. The Old Town in Tallinn is supposed to be one of the best perserved medieval cities in Europe and I could see why. It is entirely self-contained and away for the modern hotels and office ...

... following morning. We then walked around the terminal trying to get to the shoreline, but instead discovered a huge concrete monstrosity. This was a stadium built by the Soviets and seems to be viewed as a symbol of their rule over the country as it is now neglected and decaying. We walked up onto the roof and watched the view over the Gulf of Finland and the Old City. Overall we really liked Tallinn and enjoyed spending several days exploring the town.

We weren't sure which way to go to Stockholm, via Helsinki or Tallinn, until we learnt that a lady we knew was in Tallinn. We enjoyed a few days with our friend but didn't see a lot of the city, partly because of the weather. We spent some time wandering in the old city ...

... s field trip to Narva. Wednesday, July 4, 2007 Happy 4th to everyone!! We went on a field trip to Narva to tour the city and see a huge castle. it had lots of stairs to climb but everyone loved it!!

But it has come along way and it is a beautiful city..We were able to see the border of Russia but could not cross the line :(.. After the tour we ...
