Estonia was wonderful. Instead of following the coast up to Talin, then
going back and forth to Narva, as I had originally planned, I looped eastward
from Riga, thruough Tartu and along the west coast of Lake Peipsi to the
land of the Old Believers. The economy didn't seem too boomin' along Lake
Peipsi, but that did mean cheap accomodations for me. Lots of beautiful
folling forrests. Finally I made it to my destination, the Russian Border.
When I got there it was starting to rain, and getting late. I didn't want
to make a scene, and I wasn't sure if I could be taking a picture of the
bordercrossing, so I took a quick picture, and headed west to find lodging.
I found a hotel, but It was kind of pricey. I kind of felt like treating
myself, since I had made my journey with 6 weeks to spare, but the hotel
just seemed pricey, but not all that. A few more miles down the road I
found a wonderful bungalo with a bed and a view of an orchard. Onward
to a hostel that saved me, and finally to Tallin, to a campground that
had a biker bar named Route 66.
