We took a 9-day journey through the Baltic countries of Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania in late May. We started our journey in Finland with the dining, pubs, and nightlife of Helsinki and continued with a ferry ride to the aesthetically-pleasing medieval town of Tallinn in Estonia. A day trip out to the drowning prison in Rummu and over to Lahemaa National Park provided some fresh air before an evening of beverages and sustenance back in Tallinn. From there we flew down to Riga, hopped in our rental car, and drove to Cēsis to drink in the ruins of the oldest brewery in Latvia and a few other attractions in and around town. We returned to the beautiful facades, cathedrals, and central market of Riga before we departed for Lithuania. We landed in Vilnius and hopped in our rental car to drive through the countryside to the Curonian Spit perched along the Baltic Sea. From there we headed inland past the Hill of Crosses and beautiful castles before settling in for great food, beverages, and buildings throughout Vilnius and the Republic of Užupis. We eventually came full circle back to Helsinki for our flight home with a suitcase full of memories.
