Today I went to the national park of Lahemaa Estonia, the first national park in the former soviet union, and it was really spectacular. Many kinds of trees and wildlife. The youth hostel here is very nice with a good group of people from such areas of the world as: Italy, Basqe, Holland, China and USA. Estonia is a really fun and educational place to visit. Tommorow I have plan to vist the musseum of occupations.

Hello from Tallinn Estonia - Arrived here yesterday after three weeks of touring in Central Asia which included some serious hiking in the Pamir Mountains of Kyrgystan. The people I met in Uzbekistan and Kyrgystan were some of the most friendly people I have ever met. Children often come running up of they see an American tourist and then ask to be in a picture with them. Sometimes they will ask for a donation, and sometimes they are just happy to do it. It is sad that the political climate, supported by post-Bush American foriegn policy, resulting from our "war on terror" turns it's head human rights abuses that are going on. Sometimes information obtained through torture is used by both our government and others.
Estonia is lovely so far. I can't wait for my luggage to get here so that I can change my shirt!
