The most obvious entrance into the old town in Tallinn. The left side of the street is lined with nothing but flower shops.

One of the passages into the main square. The sun has gone down by about 3:50pm, so the light is at a low angle all day (in November, anyway)

Dinner at Olde Hansa. This medieval themed restaurant is almost bordering on corny, but the food was really good! My friends Al and Helena are at the bottom of the photo. Note the three-piece band up in the little loft playing period instruments. I didn't notice them there for a long time; I thought it was a recording playing. :)

I was in the city of Tallinn, in Estonia for about 10 days in November. I was there as a juror for the international competition in the Sleepwalkers student film festival. After my duties with Sleepwalkers was over, I stayed for the Animated Dreams festival. Most of my time was spent in and around the historic old town.
