Early departure (local time) from Pori
Sun rise at Torku
Ulkoluoto. Hmm, this sun visor would be useful right now. It’s very much stuck.
Helsinki, another beautiful city
That’s an Unesco heritage site down below, 18th century fortress
Fortress of Suomenlinna up close
Hopping across the gulf of Finland to Tallin in Estonia
Another amazing historical city
The historical inner city is amazingly well kept and looks pretty good from above
Haapsalu
Also home of an old medieval castle near the top right above
Suursadama
Piila, illustrating the typical farmland in Estonia
Kuressaare
Home of Kuressaare castle and an interesting statue Suur Tõll ja Piret
Tartu, birthplace of the Estonian song festival which had its 150th anniversary last year.
You can also get a VR tour here, walking around like it’s 1913
And it has a beautiful dome church
Pskov back in Russia
That ‘wall’ along the river (appartment blocks in fs2020) is actually this
Pskov is a medieval fortress along the water, amazing place
And finally arrival in Riga after a short night flight from Valmiera.
All caught up with updates, the rest will be more real time.
