Train Tallinn to Tartu

We're having another great breakfast and a nice conversation. As we are walking to the train station the recent snow is starting to melt. The train we take continues to Riga and Vilnius connecting the three Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

In Tartu we check into to a nice hotel with comfy beds which are tempting on the jet lag. Grab the bus into town for a bite in a cafe with terrific soup. Walk around and we go ice skating on the Reaplats. It's only 4 pm, dark and it feels like 8pm. Then we dine in style at a fine Italian restaurant. The menu has dishes with fresh handmade cheese sourced from milk from a local dairy and in-house handmade pasta. The chef knows how to combine herbs and texture for an explosion of tastes in your mouth. It's truly excellent. A superb tiramisu tops it off.
