Day 10: Estonia!!!!!

Whew!!!  What a day!!!  We had a blast visiting Tallinn, Estonia.  Our feet are nice and tired.  :)

Our "ferry" ride was about two hours.  It was a really neat ship.  It looked like a smaller version of a cruise ship that you might see in the Caribbean.  Passengers can even rent cabins for the two hour ride.  We started out on the top deck, watching the scenery.  Helsinki was beautiful from up there.  But then that breeze off the Baltic got too chilly so we found a nice spot by a window inside.

After we got into port, we made our way to the Old Town.  It's a very interesting skyline.  You have this very modern, large area around the outside of the stone wall.  Inside the stone wall, you can see the old buildings and churches. 

We visited many churches and museums today.  Tallinn was very busy....and hot! 

The ride back into Helsinki was nice.  We chose to sit inside this time  :)

I'll elaborate further on Tallinn tomorrow....and post pictures. 

2 tired teachers tonight   =)
