July 28, 2022,Estland: Tallinn, Stadt und Wald Tour

Round trip with the "Mein Schiff 6 Troop" through Tallinn and a bit through the forest. It wasn't cold but there was a small drizzle shower and therefore unfortunately no nice photos of the sun. Beautiful city with many sights. Very relaxing no mass tourism. Was a lot of fun.
