We are going to Hiiumaa !!

This is good news!!

My toe is getting better, too - but not very quickly. At least I can walk short distances without pain now. But long hikes are completely impossible

good to know.
good trip to you.
oh, im melting just now......

Did you get any cream to put directly on the toe? I got Fucidin and it is very efficient.

Me too..... and for us to leave the house and the animals is not so easy. We need to prepare things so that Timo and Anna can take care of the animals without too much trouble. Timo will be staying here during nights too, so I also have to make sure that he has what he needs for breakfast and maybe an evening meal.
But.... it is too hot to even THINK
Tomorrow should be a bit cooler..... so I hope I can get things done.

Yes. And I think it was good

Caysa and Ricky, I am so glad to hear that you both are improving!

Me too
But I notice that when I felt so ok yesterday.... I did overdo it a bit. Better to remember what the doctor said - take it easy and let it heal in it's own time.
The skin around the toe is tough. It takes quite a while before the antibiotics get to heal it. And when the new tissue grows it is like a baby's butt, it has to be protected. You can't expect it to be as tough and hard as the rest.... So... slowly slowly.....

OK, dear friends - it is time to close the puter and concentrate on getting everything together and stuffed in the car. It seems funny, maybe, but we are taking our camping cooker and some other stuff like that.... I like the idea of a simple lunch and coffee on a sandy empty beach or something... We shall see how it turns out, there are not too many shops/ restaurants on this island.
We are leaving at 5 am tomorrow and coming back very late on thursday evening. But we are taking the laptop as there should be internet access at the hotel. If it works ok I might even post pics



Until then......

bye,bye.....good trip and nice coffee in the lonely beach

Have a good trip!!

Have a good journey and be careful! Enjoy being together with Juha and without job and bothering people and come home with
many pics and stories!

Have a wonderful trip!

Thank you all!!!
Here we are now at the hotel after a loooong day.

Outside our garage at 5.15 this morning




Leaving Helsinki




After arriving in Tallinn we decided to drive a bit off the beaten track as we had time enough to do that before taking the ferry to Hiiumaa. Somewhere along the road we saw this very colorful complex




It was a pig farm !!

heheee, keep going loading cool, welcome to estonia!!!!

Strange: at first sight it reminds me of a jail.. small cells and those windows with bars...the only funny thing are the colours on the outside.

And now, after having read what Ally found out:

It really is a jail and all living creatures that are locked up there
behind bars are condemned to death...even though they are innocent!

Sad thoughts...I know, forgive me, ...I like meat too!

Yeah...... that is how it goes.....

Here there was no thunder - only very much rain. I woke up to that. But in the morning it was over and the sun came out. It has been very windy all day tho.

This hotel is very clean and tidy and the people here are nice. Only bad thing so far is the beds.... They are hard and bumpy.... I had to take my duvet and fold it in under me to be able to sleep.

I will try to post some more pics tonight....

I always take my pillow if we go by car

Still on mainland in Harjumaa.... we came across this old church, Harju-Risti Church. It was been restaured and an artists worked with the wall paintings.

When we left from the church we saw the first White Stork



This was a port we visited, the Estonian name sound almost like a terrorist

A few more pics from that port

Border Crossing Point - these small ports are all over the coast!

I wonder what they sell in this little shop in Haapsalu (the last town before arriving at the port in Rohuküla) ???



Some old castle ruins in the harbour




Buy your ticket on the net and print it - then just scan the EAN code in the harbour and the gates open up




The harbour building




Boarding the new ferry "Hiiumaa"

This church look really cosy and old feeling is there.
I like the comfort with the ticket:D
how was the ferry?
in this little shop they sell everything you desire
have a nice continuous trip....
