ESTONIA - TALLINN

We caught a ferry to Tallinn … WOW (Tallink) …. More like a luxury cruise than a ferry ….. highly recommended. An absolutely beautiful old town … one of the most impressive I have seen in Europe, and I suspect that mainly because it had not been destroyed in WW2…. But still lacks atmosphere.
Still jet-lagged …. Worse I have been for years … stopped drinking, lots of sleep….. hoping body recovers soon….. worse being so far north … it doesn’t really get dark … so at 2am its like dusk….. so everytime I wake up, it feels like its daytime…… body is really freaked out by this experience.

Moving slowly towards Riga….. My opinion of Estonian buses has just increased 99% after discovering the bus from Tallinn to Riga has power, and WiFi … uploading this blog post from a f%iking Bus!!!!


The photos below were taken at (midnight with no flash), so it gives you an idea of how odd it is to have daylight at that time

Also, I have decided that will fit in a trip to Egypt, before heading off back to Australia (probably last week in June, after returning to London for few days)
