Eurotrip



Afther 3 months in Belgium i got call from friend whos van was in Holland. Fellow Estonians borrowed it and went to Amsterdam but when brakes give up and they didnt bother to bring it back.
So i went over and managed to repair it in few days. As opportunity came i also decided to drive it back to Estonia and see my family. I took the route specially by smallest roads and stopping in nice villages making pictures of outstanding architecture.
Germany with their infamous red brick houses and tidy towns was interesting. Took my time and did some sightseeing in national parks and camped outside every night.
The change to Poland was obvious, bad roads and ugly soviet buildings. But inspite of that the boulevards and landscape were nice with some remarkable cities.
Lithuania was also beautiful, good roads and very nice scenery with lots of churches and castles.
Latvia was getting more remote but spent some time looking around and also found awesome palace and few old castles.
In Estonia went to see my grandparents house to refresh my old memories. And was hiding in my uncle's house until birthday to surprise my parents. But they already know me and my mum told to dad the day before that she has a feeling that we will meet soon.

Anyway, safely home!
