Tallinn









Arrival in Tallinn greeted us with nice weather, although cold at night it has been 16'C and sunny today, which was odd stood on the beach in that weather surrounded by piles of snow...
We found a Prisma supermarket...think Asda on a big scale, with confusing prices (everything was marked in estonian kroons and euros on the same label) and stocked up on food and beer to take to Finland with us. Complete with 3litre bottles of vodka (no we didn't buy one) and even multipacks of the stuff...
The roads are pretty atrocious with broken tarmac, mud and standing water everywhere...glad the car has soft suspension.
Last night we had dinner in the Olde Hansa (http://www.oldehansa.ee/) . A very interesting themed place with excellent food, definately worth a visit if you're here.
After that we went for a few drinks in Molly Malones, yes I know its an Irish pub, but it was the only place that was more of a bar/pub than a restaurant. Prbably one of the cheaper bars round here as well.
Just enjoying relaxing here for a few hours...more to come later...
