Our mintrip to Tallin!

We made a minitrip to Tallin, tuesday to wednesday, 36 hours:) Its amazing what one can do in such a short time! We( me, Nico, the girls and my dad)  left on tuesday morning by car at 11am, came to Helsinki at 17.30, drove onboard the Tallink Ship `Baltic Princess´ , went to our cabins and then just enjoyed the boatride, ate at the restaurant, went out on the deck, girls enjoyed the kiddies program/ activities. The boat docked at the Tallin harbour and then in the moning we got off and took a taxi to old town( 6€). We had breakfast in old town, not the best, as usually happens when you stop at the first place, but it was on by the market square so we thought it might be good. We walked around a few hours and then we went back to the boat and the journey back to helsinki started at 13.00. Again, food , tax free and kiddies activities and we where in Helsinki again at 16.30, into the car and the journey back home started, we stopped at Idea park, had dinner ,and back on the road again, home we where around midnight. It is a life saver to  have a dvd player for the girls in the car, as that keeps them in a good mood and not too restless:) Here a few pics from our trip, enjoy!
 Viivi loves making faces, difficult to get her serious on a picture..or just to make a simple smile:)

 Many cruise ships at Tallin harbour..and in town many tourist groups walking around.
 In the cabing on the boat, a favourite spot to sit...in the window:)

And after a busy trip on our way home, Liina sleeping and Viivi still going, but by the time we got home both where asleep:)

Love Jannika

  1. Looks great and that's the thing that happens during the travel when we see how people give their time to the ones which are certainly growing best east coast bus tours would be something that has all the elements which are more like the need.
