Easter trip to the Baltic countries

[Schwarzkopf]

Bonjour. Richie et moi just got back from a 10 day trip which saw us Visit 5 cities across 3 countries. This is the order;

 

There was a small park in Lithuania, but as it was closed (and I only managed to get 2 photos of the place), I won't put this in the coaster section!

 

Tallinn, Estonia (The Capital)

 

Riga, Latvia (The Capital)

 

Vilnius, Lithuania (The Capital)

 

Elektrenai, Lithuania (The only park on the trip is here, so you'll have to wait for CREDS)

 

Kaunas, Lithuania

 

 

We flew with Sleasyjet to Tallinn, Estonia (the most northern country).

 

The first noticable thing was the HUGE piles of snow at the side of the road, which is crazy for easter, for us. They're used to it, though;

 

 

 

The park didn't look very inviting, TBH:

 

 

All the cities in this area have an 'old town' area, and then a 'new town' area. It's kind of like the Arab world, but, European. The Old town in tallinn had a wall all the way around it.

 

 

The Main Square in old town;

 

 

 

 

 

We noticed a few of these around the city. Estonia's answer to banksy, perhaps?

 

 

 

This is FAB;

 

 

From old town you can see the contrasting new city. Tallinn, although extremely small for a capital city, had some cool buildings;

 

 

 

I like this one, coz the trams fit perfectly <3...

 

 

The hostel was a proppa' stoner place...

 

 

Bit of acid...

 

 

Free BJ to the first person who can tell me which film we're watching?...

 

 

 

 

 

The next day we wandered around some more, with slightly better weather. It was still FREEZING though...

 

Sunny old town!

 

 

I swear this is stolen from outside Duel...

 

 

Cuteeee

 

 

More cuteness!

 

 

 

The turrets are part of the walls, meaning we're now out of old town...

 

 

 

and heading towards.....

 

SNOW!

 

 

This was supposed to be a shortcut, but, it backfired;

 

see how deep the bottle is...

 

 

We ended up on the other side of the city, spite!

 

 

The next day, we got on our bus to Riga, Latvia. Part 2 to follow.
