Well, our last 3 days were in Tallinn Estonia.  Finally a place where the prices were reasonable.  Tallin's old town, is a mideival walled city, with lots of nooks and crannies, and crazy cobblestone streets.  We took a bus tour outside of the "old city" and saw some of the 20th century sites, but mostly we wandered the quaint old town.  It was so scenic you couldn't help but take tons of photos.  And did i say we ate more interesting food?  No fast food here.  Tons of sidwalk cafes, with full meal options.  So we wandered in the morning, ate a late lunch, then went back and took a nap, then started over again and had dinner.  It was a very relaxing pace.  We finally bought a couple of souvenirs - amber earrings for Cari, linen placemats, wood spoons and a couple of small paintings.

We got off very early Monday morning (well actually about 9 p.m. Sunday night at home) and arrived back at 5:30 p.m. Monday night.  The way I figure, we got about 45 minutes of sleep in a 24 hour period, but amazingly I'm not just totally bushed. 

It was a great trip.
