TallinnTallinnI visit Tallinn in nearly every summer. And why not: it's so near to Helsinki. It takes something like two hours. This trip happened on the September 1st, 1999. It happened just after my stay at 'Käpylän kuntoutuskeskus'. Here is a link to my previous trip there. What about next?
Everything started with handicap trip to the harbor. Okay, the handicap was really badly late. And I had to get up so early. I wasn't very happy...
Here is the church of Niguliste. Some of my ancestors are buried there.
I have a sort of seat belt. Because roads of Tallinn are extremely
poor!
This was our boat: a catamaran. And at the way back, we learned
how small it really was. Because it rocked awfully badly in sea.
Because of my wheelchair, we were escorted in firstly. So we
took very best seats. Naturally so!
Passport controllers
had quite a dilemma: there were no lift. Only quite hard stairs.
Okay, passport controllers could send something like a division
of controllers down. And carry me there. Or send one
controller down.
We went
to a philately shop from harbor. There I bought quite amount of
things. No, no. One was really nice (and expensive) one.
One can see the church of Niguliste.
Which has been turned into a museum. Which was closed...
Eating!! Pepper-steak.
Extremely much pepper. And then very tasting sauce. There were
some rose peppers. Those were very lovely looking ones. Not tasting
so strongly.
Here
is my eating-place. Okay, mostly that place was interested bringing
beer to thirsty (mostly Finnish) tourists.
After
the eating: art gallery. And I had to go up those stairs. No fun!!
Then
a few pictures from the gallery. I took a graphic of cat, naturally.
That comes to my cat wall.
Everything
looks really classy there. But when one goes closer, the sorry
truth becomes clear.
Here is Mere-centrum.
And they have quite liberal feeling about copyright-laws. The
biggest place is naturally Mustamäki...
