We caught the bus from Tallin yesterday down to a place on the westcoast of Estonia, called Parnu. About a 2 hour bus ride (140 kms or so). The scenery on the bus ride wasn't bad - very lush and green.
Parnu is supposedly known as the Baltic Riviera, although the "stretch" of beach isn't much of a stretch compared to the Perth coastline! It also looked rather shallow with people wading out 50m offshore still up to their knees!!
There doesn't seem to be a lot to see, per se, in Parnu apart from some nice leafy streets\parks and intersting architecture. I think it is better known for its sanitoriums where people come to "recover"! Still, it will be a nice place to spend a day doing a few of the things we need to (organise more accomodation, catch up on internet, and most importantly washing (which we paid for by the kilo!)). Maybe even a lie on the beach could be in order. The weather is pretty spectacular. Sorry to those of you in winter climes .... ;-)
