Day 17 – 22:48 – 11/06/2010 – Tallinn, Estonia
Well we haven’t done much today for a number of reasons. We got up at a similar time to yesterday, and had breakfast downstairs much like yesterday. This time though there was no ommlette left, much to my disappointment.
Anyway, we went back upstairs and got ready to go out. The weather did not look good so we opted for a castle trip rather than an excursion out of Tallinn. Luckily we made the right choice. It started raining at about 12:30pm and didn’t stop until about 7pm. We were at the castle from about 11am to 1:30pm before we decided to come back, the rain was pretty heavy.
The rest of today we’ve just relaxed, watching the football on Estonian/Finnish TV. We had a meal down at the hotel restaurant which was actually pretty cheap, helped by a free drink voucher. I had stuffed pork, an Estonian dish. It was very nice.
Tomorrow is our last day within the comfort of the European Union, where everything is standardised and you can tell that everything is so. We are leaving our comfort zone tomorrow night for Russia and although we’re a little nervous as we’ve never done anything like this before, we both cannot wait – I can only speak for myself when I say this has been the best 2 and a half weeks of my life so far.
