The teachers in Meidokan Espoo did a next season planning trip to Estonia's capital Tallinn. I was well prepared mentally for the trip ready to enjoy "few" quiet ones, a relaxed dinner in good company and good karate discussions. I even did remeber to take my passport with me ...which was actually outdated autumn 2004 . A funny moment though when the customs the officer looked me and "Ja tälläkö meinaat matkustaa ??" - "And you intend to travel wtih this ??". Luckily I had my new ID also with me so I got onboard.
Lot's of good (and later less impressive) discussions on the relevant issues relating to our club'c style issues - went to bed way too late and after way too many beers.
Next morning 9am Nikke knocked the cabin door and woke Are and me (as obviously agreed sometimes during the night ?) for a visit to Tallinn. Nikke kicked us out from our beds, and off we marched to Tallinn.
I had completely forgotten how beautifull the old city is. Impressive work on renovations !!I must really visit the city regularly in the future - it is so close to Helsinki.
I envy (and joy with) you Estonians for your beautifull capital ;o)

Yep. It's beautiful. Even LIFE magazine in its issue "Heaven on Earth: 100 places to see in your lifetime" lists Tallinn as one of the top interest points to see, among Grand Canyon, the Big Sur, Sydney harbour etc. Greetings from SFO, Eija
