Tallinn = Change of Pace

Arrived in Tallinn around 2:30 pm ... was just wonderful to see my half-sister, Inta. She is 83 and absolutely amazing. We took a walk at 4:15 and didn't get back until 7 pm... we walked the entire time... She did the same thing when we visited her 9 years ago... she can outwalk a camel! She is really extraordinary. Our walk was beautiful... just 3 minutes from her apartment was a lovely wood with birch trees in abundance. In several places, we walked hand-in-hand through rows of birch trees. It so relaxing and felt like true time of recovery after the hectic pace of St. Petersburg.

It's very peculiar typing from an Estonian computer... the keyboard is NOT the same.

All is well ... we will be here about 3 days. Tomorrow we go to the center city and then to the shore. More later.
