Carol, I didn't know you went to Estonia. Wasn't it wonderful? I just LOVED Estonia, and I remember those walls looking like something out of a fairy tale.

I liked the people there as much as the place. Our Estonian guide told us about when the USSR tried to overthrow Estonia (after they splintered off) tiny little Estonia made preparations to fight off the huge Soviet army's oncoming tanks with a few big rocks perched on top of the old town hill. Luckily, they never had to roll them downhill at the tanks. But you gotta hand it to them, they have spunk! To this day if we hear something on the news about Estonia, DH and I both go "awwww...Estonia!" with fond memories.

I think I have some photos of Estonia...buried...maybe I can find a few to share.
