Hey Gopher, when do we dock?

First full day in Tallinn today and it was good. We are in the Old Town area of the city and it is like a little oasis. Cobblestone streets with little shops, restaurants and pubs lead the way to a large open square that has a bunch of restaurants with outdoor seating. It was an ideal day for us to take our self-guided audio tour of the city since the weather was clear, sunny and close to 80 degrees.

I'm sure Dave will elaborate on the women of Estonia, but let me just say they are every bit as beautiful as the women of Russia except with more of a Nordic look to them. A lot of blonde haired blue eyed women. Dave is having a hard time controlling himself especially since our hostel is a floor below a burlesque show. Hostel floor 2, Striptease floor 3. He's hoping he'll get half price admission if he shows them the key to our room.

We bought our tickets for the ferry trip to Stockholm today and I'm a little nervous about the our choice of cruiseline. Apparently we will be sailing on the Romantic Ferry Line or something like that...enter your punch line here. Uh, I just have this bad feeling we are going to board the boat and see the all male crew in tight short shorts and rave music playing over the loud speakers. "Attention all passengers, George Michaels will be propositioning interested parties in the Lido Deck bathroom beginning at 11:00." Thank God we aren't sharing our cabin with anyone, but there is a fear that the two beds we booked are actually one single bed in the shape of a heart that can be pulled apart. You never know with these Swedes; I mean they did give us ABBA you know.

That's all for now but I'm sure I'll have more to tell tomorrow about Dave's trip to the striptease. I'm not sure his groping of the dancers will be as well received as it is at his home club in Atlanta.
