February 2008 - Tallinn, Estonia

Glen often talks about his trip to Tallinn a couple of years ago so I convinced him to take me there to see what its all about. Its a very pretty town and very quiet in winter but we were very lucky with the weather and though it was cold, it was also sunny. We spent our time wandering around the streets, taking lots of photos and sitting in coffee houses. On Saturday night we had a fanastic dinner in the gorgeous Gloria restaurant, built in the old town walls and on Sunday we treated ourselves in the hotel spa... a lovely and relaxing weekend.
