Out of all the Baltic capitals we visited, Tallinn was the most fun. Not that we got to know any Estonians or anything like that, but the backpacking culture is alive and kicking in the city. Full of Aussies for some mad reason :)

We sneaked into the Radisson hotel, went to the very top to admire the lovely panoramic view of Tallinn & the Baltic sea.

"Estonian" culture is what we Estonians aim to preserve (Soviet occupation was by force, something foreign to forget and erase. They put their own "pawns" into the government and had them "vote" to join the Soviet Union - hardly a vote by the people!!).
