WorldTravel > stan-pustylnik  > Travel > Southern Estonia early spring 2008
Here are photos from early spring 2008 made in southern part of Estonia.
Estonia is small independant country located across Baltic Sea from Finland. Population is less then 1.5 million. Being located near Russia's border this country has been in the middle of battles and under multiple powers. More info could be found here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estonia
Country where I lived first 29 years of my life welcomed me with regular cloudy, semi-cloudy and soggy weather. What I was pleased to see - harmony between new and old. New colorful supermarkets and old buildings located in same city blocks. People are same friendly as before.
I had no time to visit Tallinn. Images shown here were made in Tartu( second city by population), in Elva, places called Illi, Peedu, Mosina.
