Some photos from our (Tiiu, Siiri and Claes) travel with the mobile home/RV to Estonia during spring 2013. The purpose of this trip was to bury the ashes of Grandma Helgas in Kvistental, Tartu, where she was born.
As two years ago we stayed in the middle of Tallinn outside Café Mosaic. |
|
They have raized the prize from 6 Euro to 15 for 24 hours. |
We also this time met Helen and Inna. |
In Kistental we parked at the river close to the leather facory that the parents of Grandma Helga once owned. |
|
Here is the building that earlier was the leather factory. As in many places in Estonia there are stork´s nestsnear the houses. |
|
The new owners of the house, in a fantastic nice way, helped us to plan the ceremony. |
|
Preparing the burial of Grandma Helga´s ashes. A priest from Tartu Peetri Church held the ceremony. |
Everyone threw three pintches of sand into the hole with the ashes.. |
Flowers were planted. |
|
Afterwards coffea was served in our mobile home. |
8 persons were seated around the table! |
|
We are close to Munamägi, which Siiri wanted to see. Munamägi is the higest mountain in Estonia (318 meters above the sea level). |
It was too steep for Tiiu and Siiri to reach the top. So they staid at the bottom and sent Claes to regonize and report. |
This place for resting was found on the way up. |
In Viljandi we invited Mai och Jaan for dinner at our place. |
Nice visit at "Konse" camping in Pärnu. We also stayed here 2 years ago. |
Back in Tallinn on the same place for staying over night. |
|
At the house of Inna and Rein |
|
At the open air museum of Tallinn. |
Inna managed to find at wheel chair for Siiri. |
Waiting to drive on board the Baltic Queen... |
... we saw these two bird´s nests (Wild Duck and European Herring Gull) at the brown arrows.
The male Herring Gull is on guard for both nests. |
