Wow! Great place 😃 we would have to visit the water tunnel to see the beers, how cool 🍺 can’t believe it was Sunday- seemed very quiet 🤫 Thanks for that, incredible architecture in Tallin.
Absolutely brilliant I loved what you showed us about the zoo, those poor animals. The architecture and colourful gardens oh and the markets so much it’s been the best 30 plus minutes of our day 🥂
To be exact the gate of Parnu is not the only existing gate in the Baltic countries. The Gate of Dawn of Vilnius built in 16th century still exists: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_of_Dawn
Wow that Zoo exhibit. I'm so glad we've grown to be more respectful of animals. Another really interesting video, thanks for sharing your travels with those of us "stuck" at home :)
What a stunning place. You continue to inspire and also create a tiny bit of envy, but it's great to watch and learn about all these amazing places I would have never considered.
Hi, great video. Married to an Estonian so interested to seeing more of the sights my wheelchair hasn’t got to yet. Thanks for info on car park, will use it for motorhome on next visit. Just a help with pronunciation, the letter ‘j’ should sound more like a ‘y’, so Baltic Jaam should sound more like “Balti Yarm”. Anyway, happy exploring!
Are you collecting smashed pennies now? Beautiful city and the cathedral is amazing. We’re a zoo family too. Not sure if Suzannah would accept a “one zoo per country” limit. 😂😂😂
Claire collects them, has been all over Europe, she's kinda obsessed! Ha ha! And trust me, Claire doesn't really accept the 'one zoo per nation' limit either! ❤️👍🏻

Hi :) Thanks for the amazing adventures. :) Did you know that Estonia was a Danish possession through the Middle Ages and early modern times. Between 1206 and 1645, Denmark ruled over various parts of present-day Estonia. Danish rule in Estonia falls into two periods: Duchy of Estonia (1206-1346), Øsel as a Danish province (1560-1645) Dannebrog was established as a Danish flag in the Middle Ages and is thus one of the oldest national flags. The founding myth links the flag to the 13th century crusade in Estonia, where Dannebrog 'fell from the sky' during a battle outside Tallinn in 1219 - or was it in 1208? Dannebrog was the flag of the Danish king and thus the kingdom for centuries. It was not until the 19th century that the flag began to be associated with the people and the nation. :)
Why would you choose the Orthodox Alexander Nevsky Cathedral as your thumbnail? It's completely uncharacteristic of the traditionally Lutheran and otherwise medieval old town and Estonians generally hate it as it was built as a symbol of Russian imperialism - Estonians even had serious plans of demolishing it in the 1920s...
Thanks. No offence meant. We saw it and thought it was beautiful. We've been making videos about how beautiful and wonderful Estonia is, our thumbnail is designed to attract viewers, not tell the whole story.

So now you are back in Tallinn (Denmark) where Dannebrog fell from the sky some 801 years ago.
Tallinn isn't Denmark
So this is the only proper zoo in Estonia. There are small "zoos" in the country with farm animals plus exotic animals you can approach with kids.
You haven't been at Riga Zoo, that's bigger and more impressive -nice area near the big lake.
Thanks, if we head back to Riga at any point, we will defo visit!
